Interesting! Not sure how inclusive AI and chatbots would be given that we already have so many hard working civil servants, but I'd like to offer a similar idea:
Topline Description
With government as a platform for innovation and services, leveraging the pool of developers in all levels of government to build and share tools by & for civil servants.
Key Objective(s)
- Create the infrastructure by which developers could share, support, and collaborate around their tools. (There's no appstore for government is there? 😆 )
- Create a SDK for civic technologists
Paragraph Description
Code for America is an excellent example. With all their builds and deployments, it would allow other municipalities, state agencies, and federal agencies to browse and iterate on tools. Having government as a platform for civil servants to more efficiently interact with citizenry would dramatically reduce the costs of modernizing infrastructure and hiring developer talent. Achieving this would not solve the problem of system and infrastructure maintenance, but it would reduce time spent on new implementations and decrease time spent 'reinventing the wheel.'
Topline Description
Open AI framework / Repository / Standards to support architecture for chatbots & citizen services
Key Objective(s)
Provide AI Collaboration / Asset sharing Central entry point federated AI services to assist citizens Provide contextually relevant answers to citizens
Paragraph Description
N/A
Measurable Metrics
citizens interacting with openai.gov responses marked “useful” appropriate federal services connected AI projects shared and used by others Productivity & savings due to tech / info sharing (e.g. costs, time, etc.)
