Artificial intelligence and deep learning methods have gained momentum over the past decade. More Government organizations are now considering implementing Artificial intelligence to improve critical decision-making.
The use of AI in the government and public services sector is gaining popularity. As a result, the quality of public services and civic engagement will improve. It will enable the redesign of internal administrative processes and policy-making systems.
The potential impact of AI on society is disparate. But the primary two areas that are developing based on the implementation of AI are
· Government sectors
· Public sectors
In this blog, you will get an elaborate idea about the influence and impact of AI in the Government fields.
#1. Automation of routine tasks
The human workforce will handle data manually. Therefore, you cannot expect the processing of vast volumes of data within a short period. But the military, aerospace, and other government departments collect vast amounts of data that need quick translation and analysis.
· AI can complete time-consuming processes in a short time. Besides, there are techniques to handle large data volumes efficiently without manual intervention.
· Deep learning and machine learning processes show their excellence in defining massive data amounts that may require some extensive repetition.
Automating simple and well-defined tasks will aid in streamlining various operations and augment the workforce. Employees have to spend more time in decision-making instead of handling trivial work.
#2. Performing Critical tasks
Government agencies dealing with sensitive data or information, the Defense Department, have to support critical work procedures. Such works include
· Improvement of situational awareness
· Better decision-making during a crisis
· Increasing the use of safety equipment like ships, war aircraft, or vehicles during emergencies
· Prediction of failure of critical parts
· Automation of diagnosing problems,
· Planned maintenance.
You can now depend on artificial intelligence for handling such mission-critical works. The practical implementation of artificial intelligence improved terrain, aeronautical, and nautical charting during the missions of the defense department.
Better surveillance and navigation system will always offer more confidence to the army and other defense personnel.
#3. Advanced Research and Development
The appropriate combination of high-performance computing (HPC), analytics, and artificial intelligence are essential for developing research works. The typical research areas, like genomics, medicine, engineering, astrophysics, chemistry, and seismology, will benefit greatly from AI.
· The research projects that receive Government funding will encourage more development of AI techniques in all aspects.
· The tools and technology necessary for the research can perform better with the integration of AI.
For instance, during drug designs, the artificial intelligence algorithm can help better analyze the observations and design the drugs accordingly.
#4. Cost-effective Digitalization
If you follow the recent market studies on AI, automation will save almost 96.7 million to 1.2 billion hours of an employee’s repetitive tasks related to data entry or handling.
The government can save money on human resources and allocate them the jobs that need human intelligence and sense for handling matters. There is no reason to allocate money to sectors where automation can be the better permanent solution.
Government and public service agencies are harnessing the power of AI to improve organizational efficiency and drive digital government transformation.
Government can utilize computer vision, robotic process automation (RPA), and natural language processing (NLP) to digitize paper documents and speed up processing.
#5. Improving Healthcare Services
Healthcare services are one of the most critical departments working under the government. Since the pandemic, governments all across the globe have perceived how important it is to track the disease spread. It is now possible to apply two types of AI for this purpose.
Creating a machine learning algorithm will look up patients from other locations with similar symptoms. It will help to deduce a pattern and warn of the outbreak of a disease in the early stage.
· Graph analytics will help identify the contacts with known virus carriers.
· Triaging patients is also possible nowadays with the emergency services of hospitals. The AI-powered tools will analyze the patient profile and predict the patient’s risk factors. The doctors can prioritize medical facilities accordingly.
All of you who lived through the tough times of the Covid-19 pandemic will know how misinformation creates chaos. For instance, during the early stage of the outbreak, people had no idea how to protect themselves or about quarantine.
AI technology can help to spread awareness timely and to the right person, apart from preventing the spread of misinformation.
Government bodies can utilize AI algorithms to examine vast amounts of biomedical data, such as genetic, imaging, and clinical data. AI inclusion speed up the discovery of innovative solutions to assess, diagnose, and treat diseases.
#6. Assured domestic and socio-economic security
The government of any state is responsible for maintaining peace and harmony in the communities. However, crime rates have increased in many states due to the steep economic setback after the pandemic.
Artificial intelligence can be a potent tool to identify patterns in the heat maps available for police departments. It will help to forecast the most probable locations and times of the subsequent crimes.
AI Predictions will help the police stay alert and focus on specific areas at certain times to prevent crimes.
The government keeps the socio-economic data of its citizens. By the use of AI and humans as a team, government bodies can better predict risk for:
· Housing and food insecurity,
· Addictions,
· Crime,
· Climate change, and
· Mental health episodes.
#7. Surveillance
Everyone knows the importance of a surveillance system for a country. The ML and AI-based algorithms will analyze videos, images, and data available from the recorded footage of CCTV cameras.
Although there are controversies about the ethical aspect of AI-powered surveillance systems, developing these systems has helped gather important information about the communities, people, and happenings.
#8. Military needs
Autonomous drones are the first set of devices you can relate to when it comes to the implementation of AI in the military sector of the government. The Unmanned aerial combat vehicles will be the most potent military weapons that can carry even vital combat payloads like missiles.
Of course, there will be real-time human control, but the levels of autonomy will vary depending on the nature of the drones.
Security forces can use deep learning to simulate tactical moves and refine military strategy in real-time.
Developing the country together
Human intelligence is no longer sufficient to run a government or protect the State’s people from various crimes. Autonomy is a necessity. The government has realized the benefits of artificial intelligence to ensure that the country’s people stay safe from trouble.
Regardless of the departments, artificial intelligence can work in every sector to improve the department’s functions.
Governments and the public sector can do more, gratify employees and citizens, and make incredible advancements because of AI, which offers a variety of advantages.
By carefully planning each stage with the aid of technology and human experts, government organizations may set themselves up for success.
In the public sector, AI is still in its adolescence; therefore, it is time to get ready. The future has come to pass, and platforms like CellStrat Hub are preparing us to be ready for this future.
