The need for a new IT strategy• 50 years after the Turing Test was posited, computers are still idiot savants
• DARPA is the only agency on the planet that can change that!
• America will never be the same again post 911
• The Quadrennial Defense Review Report and the continuing Revolution in Military Affairs
• EO 13231 - Critical Infrastructure Protection in the Information Age
• Current “fog” over ITO mission and programs
It is time for a fresh start!

Intelligent systems today: From the human to the machine
Endowing machines with basic human abilities (vision, speech, NLP,simple reasoning) so that they can handle simple tasks and communicatewith humans better

Tomorrow: Systems that think
Higher brain functions(reasoning, inventing, collaborating,planning, learning)
The intelligence is in the coalition

From computers as servants to computers as mentors
Computers return the favor:they augment human intellect

Keeping the edge• Systems that think are critical to DARPA’s mission and the
continuing RMA• An Intelligent Systems Office is needed to focus on and to
realize the vision• Program portfolio needs to be well structured:
– foundational (eg test and measurement)– infrastructure (eg picoOS, FAST, DASADA)– capability oriented (eg speech recognition, infosensors)– mission oriented (eg early warning)
• Keep the effort in one office for critical mass, team building and crucially, for research context
• Tech transfer into the military and the Information Offices
