GenAI.mil’s Rapid Expansion Continues With OpenAI Partnership

Feb. 9, 2026 

In just two months since deployment, the War Department’s enterprise AI platform, GenAI.mil, has surpassed one million unique users. With adoption spanning every Military Service, GenAI has cemented itself as the Department’s unified environment for secure, mission-ready AI capabilities. Building on this momentum, the Department today announced a partnership with OpenAI to integrate ChatGPT into GenAI.mil. This partnership will make OpenAI’s advanced large language models readily available to all 3 million Department personnel. ChatGPT will be made available to enhance mission execution and readiness, delivering reliable capabilities to the joint force.

GenAI.mil’s rapid rise reflects a decisive cultural and technological shift, validating the Department’s commitment to being an AI-first enterprise. The platform’s proven reliability, evidenced by its 100% uptime since launch and its robust infrastructure, has established it as the trusted AI platform across the Department. The platform’s adoption is already accelerating operational tempo and sharpening the decision superiority of its users. To ensure this advantage extends to the entire joint force, comprehensive training for all Department personnel will continue, empowering them to effectively learn the platform and integrate AI capabilities into their daily workflows.

This initiative is a direct execution of the War Department’s AI Acceleration Strategy released last month, and acts on the mandate of President Trump’s White House AI Action Plan. The War Department is building an AI ecosystem for speed, security, and enduring mission impact. Integrating ChatGPT into GenAI.mil marks another critical step in making frontier AI capabilities the standard for daily operations.
