Summary
The United States Army is implementing a generative AI tool called CamoGPT to filter out references to diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) from its training materials, following an executive order from President Trump aimed at abolishing what are considered "divisive" policies. Operated by the Army's Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC), CamoGPT assists approximately 4,000 daily users in reviewing documents by searching for specific DEIA-related keywords to comply with the new guidelines. This initiative is part of a larger government effort to eliminate DEIA content, which has led to the shutdown of related offices and raised concerns over the removal of important historical references.
