Human-machine teaming allows modern soldiers to work with AI as their digital agents, using natural language or voice commands through military radios. This hands-free interaction improves situational awareness and enhances decision-making by combining AI’s analytical power with human intuition and judgment.  </p> <p>Using <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/ai">AI and machine learning</a> on missions will become critical to effective command and control environments. Language models have evolved to create and use enterprise-level knowledge bases, integrating external data for more complex interactions. This advancement has significant effects for mission capabilities, with early applications in: </p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li><strong>Voice transcription and translation</strong>—We have already seen that when paired with Push-To-Talk (PTT) voice radios, digital audio voice streams can be captured for real-time transcription, translations, and augmentation with other sources of data. </li> <li><strong>Robotic command and control orchestration</strong>—With an intent to release operators from the need to operate these systems manually, we can not only free human resources to concentrate on the specifics of their mission but also reduce the force protection overhead that is required to keep operators safe. </li> <li><strong>Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) analysis</strong>—Working with multiple agents and multimodal sensors for defense use cases, we can help increase the accuracy and range of surveillance and provide a multilayered approach to detection and action. </li> <li><strong>Querying Battle Management Systems</strong>—We not only provide the capability to access information in a humanistic way, at the point of need, we also reduce the intense staff effort associated with briefing and analysis of data—the AI agents can take on the manual load, freeing up the human cognitive load to enable better and faster decision making. </li> </ul> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="agentic-ai-explained">Agentic AI explained </h2> <p>So, what do we understand about the advancement and application of Agentic AI? When discussing Agentic AI, it’s crucial to highlight the characteristics that distinguish an agent from tools like ChatGPT or traditional digital assistants we’ve seen in office settings. There are five key nonlinear elements that define agentic capabilities: </p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li><strong>Planning</strong>—Instead of diving right into a task, an AI agent pauses and plans the series of steps required. This structured approach prevents errors, as we often see in traditional language model implementations with robots. </li> <li><strong>Reflection</strong>—Current models like ChatGPT provide answers but don’t validate them, as they lack a built-in ‘reflection’ capability. The ability to ‘reflect’ and ensure completeness is crucial to confirm that tasks are executed properly and are relevant to each subsequent step in the Agentic AI lifecycle. </li> <li><strong>Use of tools</strong>—When the AI agent encounters a step it can’t perform, it checks its manual for a corresponding tool, gathers needed information, executes the task, and processes the response. This is crucial for proprietary industry capabilities, allowing handoffs to external sources. </li> <li><strong>Collaboration</strong>—Where the human or agents work collaboratively on collective tasks. This is important for two reasons: creating clear boundaries and ensuring agents are task-specific.  </li> <li><strong>Memory</strong>—This cycle is further powered by memory, where the agent retains and can recall prior inputs, actions, and outcomes. With this memory, the agent learns from past decisions, allowing it to improve future actions and refine its planning and reflection. </li> </ul> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="traditional-non-agentic-ai-workflows-vs-agentic-ai-workflows">Traditional non-agentic AI workflows vs agentic AI workflows </h2> <p>Collectively, these five characteristics form a framework known as the REACT framework (Reasoning and Action). Reasoning involves planning and reflection, while action is about the execution.  </p> <p>The key difference between traditional non-agentic AI workflows, often seen in zero-shot prompts, and the more advanced, agentic workflows we’ve been discussing can be seen in the diagram below. </p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img decoding="async" alt="graphical user interface" src="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/industry/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Picture1-1024x576.webp" alt='The image illustrates the capability of Microsoft Copilot. The left shows "human to agent": single command/task capabilities. The right of the image shows "human to multi-agent" whereas an example planning and executing a variety of complex, multi-step tasks can be supported. Both the single agent and multi-agent help enhance human-machine teaming.

This will result in more efficient missions, quicker responses, and a trusted pairing of humans and machines. Additionally, it will allow warfighters to focus on tactical operations while AI handles data processing and situational analysis in the background.  </p> <p>This is where digital agents can come into play. Digital agents that allow operators, particularly those in forward positions, to delegate specific tasks using natural language. Incorporating these agents into your workflow can help revolutionize how your organization handles complex operations. By offering an intuitive interface, robust performance under duress, and the ability to manage tedious tasks, these agents ensure that operators at the tactical edge can focus on what really matters—making critical decisions in dynamic environments. </p> <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="microsoft-ai-principles">Microsoft AI principles </h2> <p>Microsoft is committed to advancing AI through principles that put people first. </p> <p>We put our <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/ai/responsible-ai" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">responsible AI principles</a> into practice through the AI, Ethics, and Effects in Engineering and Research (Aether) Committee, as well as our Office of Responsible AI (ORA).
