Microsoft partners with Palantir on AI for US defense and intelligence Community

Aug 11, 2024 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

Microsoft and Palantir Technologies are teaming up to provide cloud, artificial intelligence (AI), and analytics capabilities to the US Defense and Intelligence Community units to help them access Microsoft's large language models (LLMs) via Azure OpenAI Service within Palantir's AI Platforms within Microsoft's government and classified cloud environments. 
 

“Bringing Palantir and Microsoft capabilities to our national security apparatus is a step change in how we can support the defense and intelligence communities,” said Shyam Sankar, CTO of Palantir. “Palantir AIP has pioneered the approach to operationalizing AI value - beyond chat - across the enterprise. It’s our mission to deliver this software advantage and we’re thrilled to be the first industry partner to deploy Microsoft Azure OpenAI Service in classified environments.”

Deb Cupp, president of Microsoft Americas, added: “This expanded partnership between Microsoft and Palantir will help accelerate the safe, secure, and responsible deployment of advanced AI capabilities for the US government." 

Microsoft Azure has 349 sites in 14 regions.
