Machine learning and artificial intelligence already are playing a significant role in reworking call centers, in government agencies and private industry alike. Just picture the chatbots that show up every time you go to the online portal for the Department of Motor Vehicles, for instance, and get prompted to renew your auto registration online. To date, call center agents and customers both prefer human interaction. As generative AI (genAI)...

Government at all levels is moving as quickly as possible to integrate new solutions and overhaul processes that need streamlining. At the same time, officials are keeping close watch on AI and other emerging technologies, wary of the law of unintended consequences. For instance, in early September California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed an executive order directing state agencies to study the development, use and risks of generative artificial in...

Generative AI can be a highly beneficial tool, but to gain the most benefit from large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, organizations must train these models with their proprietary data – which comes with security and privacy concerns. This can be particularly challenging for higher education teams that are required to meet particular security and privacy mandates. Join experts from the Center for Digital Education, Elastic and Micro...
