<aside> I’m a software engineer and data scientist who built and successfully sold a political-tech startup before joining the Department of Defense. I went on to become the Pentagon’s first Generative AI Tech Lead, driving AI innovation across the U.S. Military. Now, I’m exploring new opportunities to apply AI in government domains.
Interested in having me advise your company, speak at your conference, or invest in my next venture? Email me at [email protected].

Parham was a generative artificial intelligence technical lead at the Pentagon’s Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office and helped negotiate deals and integrate AI into Defense Department initiatives. Up until his departure, he said, planning for the contracts hadn’t included xAI.
DoD Leveraging Gen AI to Unlock ‘Trove of Knowledge’
“What we’re trying to do is usher in and enable generative AI across the services, which is a really complex task, especially considering there are millions of people across the department,” Glenn Parham, software engineer and data scientist at DoD’s Chief Digital and AI Office (CDAO), said at the Palo Alto Networks Public Sector Ignite event in Tysons, Va., on April 2.”
Special Guests Welcome Data Scholars
“The former leader of the Data Science Scholars Pathways program and former Division of Data Sciences intern Glenn Parham also attended. He mentioned that being a part of the Data Scholars program at Berkeley is what led him to his current job launching a political startup called Pundit. He is currently taking a leave from Berkeley to work on Pundit, a political social network, and he explained the difficulty of controlling fake news and the pros and cons of anonymity.”
