311th Signal Command - Theater

Signaleers Talk Partnerships, AI at LANPAC

Soldiers of the 307th Expeditionary Signal Battalion-Enhanced shared fond memories of friendships made with joint partners while supporting Operation Pathways missions across the region, during Land Forces Pacific Symposium and Exposition in Waikiki, May 12-14.

Also during LANPAC 2026, Maj. Gen. Jacqueline McPhail, Commander, U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM), participated in a discussion panel of military leaders and defense experts who shared their perspectives on how artificial intelligence and machine learning are reshaping modern warfare. Each panelist weighed in on the growing importance of maintaining decision superiority in complex operational environments.

LANPAC is a professional development forum hosted by the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) and supported by U.S. Army Pacific. This year’s event brought together Soldiers, military leaders, mission and industry partners to envision and shape the future of Land power across the Indo-Pacific region. The three-day event featured discussions on hot topics, keynote addresses from senior military leaders, interactive audience participation, and hands‑on demonstrations showcasing the latest defense technologies and services.

"We can train the AI, and still count on job security for the foreseeable future, " McPhail said. "We have the ability to do critical thinking, not the AI."
