Pentagon deploys 100,000 AI agents on GenAI.mil

The U.S. Department of Defense has deployed 100,000 AI agents using its GenAI.mil platform, now serving over 1.2 million users across military branches. Deputy Assistant Secretary Jacob Glassman revealed the figure at a federal tech summit, noting the rapid expansion comes as the Pentagon faces workforce constraints and operational pressure from ongoing military operations. The mass deployment represents an aggressive push to automate administrative tasks and boost productivity during personnel shortages, with officials citing efficiency gains including faster, higher-quality congressional reports, though Glassman acknowledged there will be no 'cold, hard metrics' to measure all improvements.
