The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is seeking proposals for the Artificial Intelligence Quantified (AIQ) program, which aims to develop technology to assess and understand the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) in order to enable guaranteed performance. The program is divided into two technical areas: TA1 will provide mathematical foundations for understanding and guaranteeing AI capabilities, and TA2 will develop empirical methods for evaluating AI models and integrating TA1 results. Proposals can be submitted for either TA1 or TA2 and are due by August 13, 2024. DARPA will evaluate proposals based on scientific and technical merit, relevance to DARPA's mission, and cost realism.
The AIQ program is funded under DARPA's Research and Technology Development grant program (CFDA 12.910), which typically provides awards ranging from $250,000 to $5 million over 12-36 month periods. DARPA anticipates making multiple awards in the form of cooperative agreements, procurement contracts, or other transactions. The place of performance will likely be at the awardees' facilities or partner institutions.
