Data is Fundamental to Artificial Intelligence in Government

The United States has arrived at a critical inflection point as artificial intelligence (AI) will vastly impact the daily lives of citizens and deliver unprecedented capabilities across the public and private sectors. Within the federal government, agencies are already adopting AI and devising strategies for how to effectively utilize this transformative technology? in particular, the use of AI has been most consequential in supporting the mission sets around homeland and national security.

On September 25, 2019 the Center for Public Policy Innovation (CPPI) and Homeland Security Dialogue Forum (HSDF) convened a policy symposium to explore strategies for the development and deployment of AI. The wide-ranging discussion highlighted current use case scenarios, the importance of data to accelerate AI adoption, and the need for industry-government collaboration in the United States to stay ahead of adversaries in this area.
