The article discusses the increasing adoption of AI by governments, particularly focusing on the U.K. and U.S. initiatives. The U.K. government reports that AI tools could potentially reduce annual labor by two weeks. More than 1,700 AI applications are identified in the U.S. government, highlighting a shift fueled by new federal policies. Anthropic and OpenAI are developing AI models for government use, raising concerns among experts about dependency on biased technology and the reliability of tech providers, potentially leading to challenges in governance and ethics.
