US military tech innovation official quits, says Pentagon lags behindPreston Dunlap, a senior official responsible for driving technological innovation in the DoD says the institution needs “structural change” - or risk losing in the tech race.
“By the time the govt manages to produce something, it’s too often obsolete,” he said in his resignation statement, adding that it should behave more like SpaceX and other commercial ventures.
He said “the world’s largest bureaucracy” at the Pentagon is behind in distributed computer processing, software, AI and cybersecurity, instead focusing on turf wars.
Dunlap is the latest departure among senior officials that have warned the US is lagging behind China in tech terms – is anybody listening?
