Considering AI as a Strategic Tool

When thinking about the use of artificial intelligence in government, it is important to consider its tactical and strategic impacts, together and separately. While much attention is being paid to ways to harness the power of AI, equally important are questions of safety and transparency, and the balance of collaboration between government and industry to advance strategic leadership in the global AI race.

For instance, AI-powered tools can improve operations by streamlining processes, a tactical benefit. To do so successfully, leaders in critical sectors like healthcare, finance, and federal government must develop ethical policies for using data securely in AI.
