Forrester is well-known for conducting surveys with technology leaders and releasing conclusions. Today, we sat down with Sam Higgins, a Principal Analyst for Forrester, and looked at several studies he has participated in regarding the public sector and Artificial Intelligence.
We begin with some findings showing that 35% of global public sector organizations indicate an interest in implementing AI. Reduced cost, improved security, and automation are general benefits that have been reported.
This global view has been reinforced in the federal government with several programs including the AI test beds at the Department of Energy, Project Linchpin from the Army, and even the Air Force designating a Chief Data and AI Office.
During the interview, you will hear some surprising findings. One study shows that the responsibility for AI Strategy most often resides in the technology department, not official leadership.
"One of the areas that’s really interesting is just how stark the difference is between adoption intent buy the public sector versus the private sector when it comes to those internal versus external use cases. "
