Deploying AI in government depends on a delicate balance of priorities

Government AI solutions share many similarities with commercial ones, but they differ in several important ways. In this episode, Jim Rowan and Ed Van Buren discuss AI use cases in government along with barriers to adoption and how the tech industry is adapting to meet the needs of the public sector. Plus: find out why some leaders may need to reframe their thinking around AI agents.

 

“We should think about AI agents as partners—partners for the government workforce, partners for the government leaders … you can make choices about how empowered that partner’s going to be.”

 

Ed Van Buren is a principal and the AI Strategic Growth Offering leader for Deloitte Consulting LLP’s Government & Public Services (GPS) industry. With more than 25 years of experience in consulting and the public sector, Ed works with technology companies and other strategic partners to develop solutions harnessing the power of AI/machine learning for federal, state, local, and higher education clients.
