AI for defense. Show your work.

realigned.online is an online-only CanSecWest extension focused on practical AI for defense: technical talks, working methods, and time to ask the second question. Track A’s all-day virtual Zoom social room and presentation tracks B, C and D bring researchers and practitioners together to show what holds up, explain what fails, and compare notes.

The program includes a two-hour live tabletop crisis simulation led by Ron Dilley using his software, provisionally scheduled for 14:30–16:30 Pacific Time (Seattle/PST), 15:30–17:30 Vancouver. Participant requirements will be announced.
