Pythia: An AI Oracle to Identify Disruptive Innovations for the Air Force

DARCEE Pythia is a business intelligence Artificial Intelligence algorithm designed to help businesses identify potentially disruptive changes within their market segments through crowdsourcing technical expertise across vast data feeds and enriching the analysis with a company’s subject matter expertise. Additionally, the AI algorithm provides recommendations for the company to reduce exposure to disruptive market shifts based on technological advancements or emerging technologies.  DARCEE Pythia identifies and predicts innovations that are pertinent to an organization’s success. It collects a broad range of subject matter knowledge with a machine-learning driven UI and predicts probability of success and impact of each innovation with artificial intelligence algorithms. By modeling the taxonomy of the systems-of-interest, the DARCEE Pythia artificial intelligence algorithms generate tailored results with clear traceability.  Identifying the critical innovations and gauging their associated risks and rewards are nontrivial tasks in the complex, fast-growing, and jargon-filled technical fields. DARCEE Pythia forecasts technical developments with specific probabilistic metrics, thus providing Air Force decision makers reduced time spent on broad level market research, increased confidence in decision making, and increased return in investment.
