In this episode of INSA’s All Source Podcast, From Action Plan to Mission Impact, hosts Chitra Sivanandam and Yevgeniy Sirotin sit down with Sean Batir to examine why data, not just models, is the decisive factor in scaling AI for national security. The conversation breaks down how America’s AI Action Plan reframes data as a strategic asset and what it takes to build secure, interoperable, and mission-ready data environments across government and industry.
