Selva on Creating More Resilient Networks with AI: Talking Transports

The ability to optimize logistics networks that can react to weather or human disruptions can be the differentiator between success and failure for many organizations. In this Talking Transports podcast, retired General Paul Selva, DEFCON AI’s co-founder and chief strategy officer, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share his insights about how technology and artificial intelligence are creating more resilient supply chains. The retired vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff also provided his insights into the challenges and complexities facing the military in moving people, equipment and supplies around the world. Selva discusses some of his experiences leading the US Transportation Command and how his retirement from the military lead to a 3,000 mile long stroll.
