Inside Marine's AI Digital Transformation Pilot in the Pacific

Marine Corps Forces Pacific is standing up a Digital Transformation Team (DXT) as part of the Marine Corps' AI Implementation Plan's Digital Transformation Pilot. C5ISRT Systems Integration Officer and Agentic Warfare Lead Capt. Mason Millsap joined us at AFCEA TechNet Indo-Pacific to explain how the pilot helps personnel digitize processes, expand secure data pipelines and accelerate AI adoption for real-world operations. He discussed how DXT is advancing the service's Digital Transformation Pilot and optimizing digital data flows across tactical and operational systems to strengthen command and control, improve interoperability and enhance decision-making across the Indo-Pacific region. He also highlighted how the service is integrating emerging technologies from the research, development, test and evaluation (RDT&E) enterprise to maximize the value of prototypes and demonstrations while preparing for the rise of agentic and autonomous systems.
