Archer, Palantir “to Build AI Foundation for Future Of Next-Gen Aviation Technologies” 

Archer Avi­a­tion and Palan­tir, a cut­ting-edge U.S‑based soft­ware tech­nolo­gies com­pa­ny found­ed in 2003 and based in Den­ver, Col­orado, announced today (March 13th) a col­lab­o­ra­tion to build the AI foun­da­tion for the future of next-gen avi­a­tion, reports a press release. 

The two com­pa­nies plan to lever­age Palan­tir Foundry and AIP (secure, oper­a­tional plat­form for Human+AI team­ing), and accel­er­ate the scal­ing of Archer’s air­craft man­u­fac­tur­ing capa­bil­i­ties at its facil­i­ty in Cov­ing­ton, Geor­gia, while advanc­ing the devel­op­ment of soft­ware solu­tions and dri­ve inno­va­tion. 

Devel­op­ing AI can improve a range of avi­a­tion sys­tems includ­ing air traf­fic con­trol, move­ment con­trol and route plan­ning, with the goal of improv­ing effi­cien­cy, safe­ty and afford­abil­i­ty across the indus­try.

The part­ners will for­malise this col­lab­o­ra­tion lat­er today dur­ing a sign­ing cer­e­mo­ny between Palan­tir co-Founder and CEO, Alex Karp, and Archer Founder and CEO, Adam Gold­stein, at Palantir’s AIP­Con (invi­ta­tion-only indus­try event of C‑suite lead­ers drawn from Palan­tir’s cur­rent and poten­tial client base).

Karp com­ment­ed, “Our part­ner­ship with Archer is redefin­ing the future of flight, mak­ing it not only more effi­cient, but also more acces­si­ble. By inte­grat­ing Palan­tir’s advanced AI capa­bil­i­ties with Archer’s inno­v­a­tive approach to air­craft man­u­fac­tur­ing and oper­a­tions, we are set­ting the stage for a trans­for­ma­tive leap in effi­cien­cy, safe­ty and sus­tain­abil­i­ty.”  

Gold­stein added, “While avi­a­tion has an unmatched lev­el of safe­ty, much of the lega­cy tech­nol­o­gy sup­port­ing the indus­try has only incre­men­tal­ly advanced. AI and soft­ware present an inflec­tion point to shape its future.” 

The release con­cludes, “With the rapid accel­er­a­tion of AI, as well as break­throughs in dis­trib­uted elec­tric propul­sion, the indus­try is now poised for change.”
