NASA's focus on AI is increasingly visible after the US state agency appoints a new division head. For the first time, NASA has the position of Chief AI Officer. This position will be filled by NASA's Chief Data Officer David Salvagnini on May 20. Through its official blog, NASA said that this new position was created on the basis of US President Joe Biden's executive order.
