This is highlighted by a recent report, led by the Technology CEO Council (TCC), in which the IBM Center for The Business of Government participated. That report, How Productivity, Innovation, and Efficiency Can Transform American Government, details how, if implemented effectively, technology-based reforms could reduce federal costs significantly—now and over time.
Agencies must address the multifaceted challenges and opportunities associated with advancing payment integrity by adopting innovative solutions, including artificial intelligence (AI), to combat improper payments—which can include fraud, waste, or abuse.
This
challenge is compounded when officials seek to create value for the
public from digital modernization when those technologies have evolved
via different strategies, including “waterfall” approaches that often take
longer to implement than “agile” approaches.
On behalf of the IBM Center for The Business of
Government, we are pleased to release this new report:
Navigating Generative AI in Government by Professor Dr.
Alexander Richter, Wellington School of Business and
Government, Victoria University of Wellington.
In less than two decades, Indonesia will celebrate its centenary, 100
years since its independence in 1945. From an agricultural-based
economy to one embracing digital startups, from paying things with
cash to using our mobile phones for payment, Indonesia has accelerated
its technology adoption and acceptance.
The event, "Building on Regulatory Foundations and Bridging to the Future," commemorated the 30th anniversary of Executive Order 12866 and 20th anniversary of Circular A-4. Taking place a couple weeks before ChatGPT’s first birthday, the event welcomed 100+ participants and featured keynote speaker, Cass Sunstein of Harvard Law School.
Government organizations must tackle risk and uncertainty in a more systematic and enterprise manner. The authors of this new report, Peter Young and Trang Hoang, provide timely and insightful perspectives that underscore the connection between leadership actions that support government risk management and successful efforts to implement enterprise risk management (ERM). The report explores two distinct concepts—risk leadership and ERM readiness.
On behalf of the IBM Center for The Business of Government, in collaboration with the American University Kogod School of Business Tax Policy Center, we are pleased to present this new report, AI and the Modern Tax Agency: Adopting and Deploying AI to Improve Tax Administration, by Caroline Bruckner and Collin Coil of the Kogod Tax Policy Center.
Quantum computing is evolving from the fantastical to the achievable.
Accelerated developments show promise for leveraging quantum
computing to address previously intractable problems in government.
The technology can foster immense potential benefits for the public,
alongside far-reaching implications from using quantum technologies are
likely to be widespread. Developing “quantum-safe” capabilities is
crucial to maintaining data security and integrity for critical applications.
Government leaders face an urgent need to develop a quantum-safe
strategy and roadmap.
New threats and domains for warfare continually emerge. These include cyber and space
along with disruptive technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum. Dealing with
these threats necessitates an enhanced partnership across governments and within industry.
