AI for the Rest of Government

We have heard all about the highlights from agencies that are leaning forward to deploy GenAI. These are the voices that are dominating the Federal AI Use Case Inventory. But what about agencies who are still in the experimental stage of AI, or ones that still feel stuck? These agencies may be short on staff with AI expertise, or they don’t feel comfortable exposing their sensitive data to AI systems, or they are not getting the buy-in from their employees. OpenText has worked with a range of public sector agencies – from the ones who are still exploring AI, up to agencies that have scaled AI at advanced levels. The session will highlight OpenText’s decades of AI capabilities, including AI-powered enterprise search and AI-fueled application security as a service.
