The quote links AI use in the department to ethics and guidance for deploying AI-enabled capabilities, which clearly implies support for promoting responsible AI use in a defense context.

The quote clearly emphasizes responsible use: "Ethics remain at the forefront" and "guide the testing, fielding and scaling of AI-enabled capabilities," which supports promoting responsible AI in defense.

Verified. The WIRED page dated February 24, 2020 and an official DoD release both contain the full statement and attribute it to “Hon. Dana Deasy, DOD Chief Information Officer.” The text begins “Ethics remain at the forefront...” and includes the clause about using the principles to “guide the testing, fielding and scaling...” of AI-enabled capabilities; the user’s version is a faithful ellipsis truncation of that sentence.

Checked: (1) Year 2020 is correct — the statement accompanied the DoD's formal adoption of its five AI ethics principles, announced February 24, 2020. (2) Relevancy: on-topic for statement 411 about promoting responsible use of AI in defense policy. (3) Author attribution: confirmed — Dana Deasy was DoD Chief Information Officer. Web search confirmed the verbatim full quote: "Ethics remain at the forefront of everything the department does with AI technology, and our teams will use these principles to guide the testing, fielding and scaling of AI-enabled capabilities across the DOD." The stored quote's [...] faithfully bridges the omitted "and our teams will use these principles to" / trailing "across the DOD." (4) Vote alignment: Deasy voted "for"; he champions ethical/responsible AI in defense, so "for" is correct. (5) Source: wired.com (Feb 2020) is hard-blocked from WebFetch, but the quote is independently confirmed verbatim and correctly attributed to Deasy from the same Feb 2020 DoD announcement (AFCEA and other outlets). Given the quote is genuine, verbatim, and correctly attributed from the right context, verified.
