Pentagon Launches GenAI.mil, Opening Google’s Gemini to 3 Million Users for Unclassified Tasks

Access is limited to CAC holders on the nonclassified network under CUI/IL5 safeguards.

Overview

  • GenAI.mil went live with Gemini for Government as the first capability, with additional frontier models slated to join the platform.
  • The rollout reaches roughly 3 million military, civilian and contractor users on Pentagon and base computers worldwide.
  • The department is providing no‑cost training to build an AI‑first workforce and speed day‑to‑day adoption.
  • Google and the Pentagon say use is restricted to unclassified work and that Defense data will not train Google’s public models.
  • The instance is web‑grounded against Google Search to reduce hallucinations, with officials outlining uses from administrative efficiency to intelligence analysis, logistics, and simulations.
