Agencies are under pressure to adopt generative AI. The stakes are high — done right, AI improves operations, bolsters cybersecurity and speeds up decision-making. Done wrong, it creates more problems than it solves.
Defense agencies focus on security, intelligence and real-time threat detection. Civilian agencies need AI to improve service delivery and operational efficiency. But across the board, leaders face the same roadblocks: security risks, compliance challenges and the sheer scale of data.
Join GovExec and Elastic as government and industry experts detail what’s working, what’s not and how agencies can use AI effectively — without getting buried in complexity. This webinar will cover how defense and civilian agencies approach AI differently, what the latest executive orders mean for implementation and provide a practical roadmap for adoption that avoids pitfalls and maximizes impact.
Too many agencies struggle with siloed data, slow insights and AI tools that don’t deliver real results. This webinar will show how to cut through the noise, manage growing data demands and ensure AI delivers results that actually support your mission.
