General AI LLM Chatbot for NASA CUI Data: Accelerated Langley Transformation Initiative Research Assistant (ALTIRA)
Description
Accelerated Langley Transformation Initiative Research Assistant (ALTIRA) is an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot planned for general-purpose use for processing NASA CUI (not ITAR) data.
Detailed example
The first phase of this project will establish a minimum-viable-product utilizing Anthropic Claude 3.5 - based large language model (LLM) AI chatbot as quickly as possible to meet NASA needs. Phase 2 will develop a more sustainable and feature-rich multi-model and multi-modal implementation. This effort is presently led and funded by LaRC with consultation with and technical assistance from personnel at HQ, GSFC, GRC, ARC, and JSC. It will be available to all NASA personnel. LaRC has funded initial establishment, but insufficient resources are available to sustain this as an Agency-wide capability. This project leverages the Langley Transformation Initiative (LTI) sandbox account on Mission Cloud Platform (MCP) / Amazon Web Services (AWS) Commercial.
