- DARPA Launches CLARA Program: The U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking to enhance artificial intelligence (AI) systems through the Compositional Learning-And-Reasoning for AI Complex Systems Engineering (CLARA) program.
- Focus on High-Assurance AI: The project aims to develop high-assurance AI systems that combine machine learning and automated reasoning, addressing the current limitations and challenges in widespread adoption of such high-assurance AI.
- Technical Requirements: Contractors must work on aspects such as higher-order logic, probabilistic logic, and logical expressivity including structures that integrate automated reasoning and machine learning.
- Open-Source Contributions: Participants will create and share initial open-source software to demonstrate their approaches, focusing on scalable and adaptable AI models.
- Deadline and Contact Information: Companies have until 10 April 2026 to submit responses through the DARPA BAA Tool. For further queries, contact the CLARA program manager at specified email.
