Expert Statements
Eric Brock, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ondas
“No government should have to build its AI strategy on models or data infrastructure it does not control”
Eric Brock, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Ondas
“Regna AI combines open-weight models, customer-controlled mission data, and Palantir's operational platform to give defense organizations control over the AI that supports their missions. We believe Regna AI can become a foundational AI platform for the U.S. Department of War, allied governments and the defense and industrial companies that serve them.”
Alex Karp, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Palantir Technologies
“Sovereign AI, trained on mission knowledge and tradecraft, outperforms frontier models while removing dependence on them”
Alex Karp, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Palantir Technologies
“All layers of the stack are owned and controlled by the sovereign institution. Regna AI will put that within reach of institutions that could never justify building a frontier model of their own.”
