Join us for a 1-hour roundtable discussion where county leaders discuss the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in county government services – both now and tomorrow. Our speakers will cover strategies to overcome barriers to entry, share real county use cases, and explore the challenges of integrating AI. We'll also highlight emerging technologies and how county governments can start building a strong foundational understanding of AI before planning future investments.

Key takeaways:

  • Learn about the barriers to implementing AI and hear how counties have overcome obstacles.
  • Discover AI use cases that are enhancing county service delivery and the challenges faced along the way.
  • Get insights into emerging technologies and how to take the next steps to exploring how AI can impact your county. 

Following the webinar discussion, our speakers will interact with the audience in an open Q&A, and we’ll conclude with some recommendations.
