- The U.S. Navy Reserve employs nearly 60,000 reservists whose missions are crucial to national safety and success.
- The Navy Reserve relies on extensive training and volumes of information for its operations.
- Historically, access to mission-critical information required extensive contact with command support.
- To streamline access, the Navy Reserve developed the Reserve Artificial Intelligence Navigator (RAIN), a Q&A chatbot.
- RAIN, a collaboration between CACI and AWS, was built in four months, leveraging the pre-existing QnABot AI and Amazon SageMaker.
- RAIN provides reservists with quick answers via a mobile app, eliminating the need for extensive documentation searches or support calls.
- The developers plan to enhance RAIN to generate documents and process controlled unclassified information.
- The project exemplifies a successful use of modern AI to achieve government efficiency and mission success.
