ABOUT

Most government organizations have only scratched the surface of AI’s capabilities. While many agencies have implemented automation or cognitive technology in some form, deploying these tools at scale across the enterprise is key in order to channel the full benefits. As AI and automation become even more widespread, how will you capitalize on this technology and prepare for its impact on your organization's mission performance and workforce?

On December 3rd we explored use cases that showcased how AI and automation can transform your office, from creating more efficient financial management and acquisition practices to revamping HR to improving citizen-facing services.

The AI Trust Gap: Creating Transparency, Explainability and Confidence in Artificial Intelligence


Artificial intelligence involves a fear of the unknown. In order to tap into the potential that AI creates, leaders need to be confident that algorithms are creating accurate and unbiased results. During this conversation, we sat down with experts to discuss how to create transparency and better understand the algorithms and models that guide AI, as well as best practices for avoiding bias and building trust in outcomes.
