A recent Pew Research study concluded that nine in 10 Americans are aware of the use of artificial intelligence in their daily lives. As one might expect, 61% of Americans 65 and older are concerned about the growing use of AI.

What might not be as obvious is that 42% of Americans in the digital generation, ages 18 to 29, have reservations about the proliferation of AI.

Airman Magazine recently interviewed Col. Tucker Hamilton, 96th Operations Group commander at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, and Air Force AI test and operations chief, to discuss the current state of AI within the Air Force; ongoing research, development and testing; and AI's place in building the force of the future.
