Robotic Process Automation (RPA) has the potential to automate entire processes or part of processes that are repetitive, monotonous and occur in high volumes. In a shrinking budget environment, RPA is a tool to “do more with less”. While RPA automates “hand work”, AI assisted Intelligent Automation also automated “head work”. RPA, IA and AI has spread rapidly in the private sector and many federal and state...

From AI to VR, blockchain to the Internet of Things, emerging technology has the potential to fundamentally reshape the way government operates, interacts with citizens, and achieves its mission. At this event, Nextgov will explore the biggest trends in emerging technology, highlight case studies from early government adopters, and examine how agencies can begin preparing now for the technology of the future.

Government agencies are actively preparing their data to take advantage of emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML). In the face of heightened mission complexity and data proliferation, agencies are looking for ways to maximize the value and impact of data. Application areas are accelerating as agencies turn to AI to drive cyber offense and defense, robotics and automation, transportation security, and he...

The network of the future is driven by technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, block chain, and zero trust and their impact on disaster relief, medical readiness, data management, maintenance and logistics, vehicle safety and cyber resiliency. These trends provide the digital dexterity to deploy cost-effective innovation to hone the government’s global edge.The ability to operate networks so they are adaptable to any...

The disruptive impact of autonomous technology in the federal government isn’t tomorrow’s concern; its capabilities are here today. With the rise in computing power and machine learning, the age of self-learning technology is arriving faster than many believed possible. In federal, defense and intelligence communities, groundbreaking, forward-thinking autonomous applications ranging from drone swarms and self-driving vehicles to im...

As we head towards 2030, national security leaders, industry, and allies are mobilizing for a new era of great power competition between the United States, China and Russia — an era that will be defined by breakthrough technology. The 4th Annual Defense One Tech Summit will explore this future. Top national security and tech journalists will sit down with leading innovators in government, military, industry and academia to discuss emergi...

After decades in development, artificial intelligence is now transforming government in both high-profile and largely hidden ways. Cloud-based computer resources, rapidly advancing algorithms and the explosion of available data are allowing agencies to pursue everything from automated citizen services to mission-centric machine learning. The White House has made cognitive technologies a cornerstone of its annual research and development priori...

The push to modernize agencies’ outdated IT systems has been remarkably constant in recent years. Guidance on how to modernize, however, has come in a sometimes-confusing array of programs and policies. Federal IT leaders must not only knit those mandates and initiatives into a coherent effort, but also make sure the governmentwide priorities square with their agency’s unique mission needs. That’s no small challenge, but the...

Join Google and Carahsoft to see how machine learning is being applied to help optimize everyday experiences. Google is a pioneer in ML and AI, pushing the boundaries of AI with DeepMind projects. This road show will cover the following topics:What is ML, what is it not?How do ML and AI differ?Quick overview of key APIs with example use cases:Translate API- how web developers can increase accessibility in multiple languages without having to m...
