Defence

The Australian government has identified an increasingly unstable world. With that and extremely rapid changes in technology and AI, the defence sector is faced with a number of challenges but also opportunities.

AI and High-Performance Computing within the defence sector have numerous applications. AI can process vast amounts of data from multiple sources. AI can support intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance as well as command and control functions. It can enable predictive modelling, threat evaluation, mission planning and operation co-ordination giving strategic and tactical advantage.

AI is also bringing about a transformation in industrial and manufacturing processes. Generative AI models can now analyse and construct complex military equipment, reduce labour intensive tasks and enable rapid prototyping. With all of this comes the challenges of reliability, transparency, robustness and data sufficiency. AI systems must be resilient, thoroughly tested and secure against adversarial manipulation.

XENON has 30 plus years’ experience working in partnership with the defence industry at all levels. XENON is an Australian owned world leader in HPC, Data Management, high speed servers, AI factories and the possibilities of Quantum computing. XENON has a team of industry recognised experts in their relative fields. 

Australia’s defence spending will climb by $53 billion over the next decade as the federal government says it responds to “intensifying” global risks. That injection includes a $14 billion lift in spending over the next four years.”
