Today's podcast review comes from this blog review for The Ladies of the Secret Service by Constance Sayers.
Today, local governments everywhere face the same challenge: How to deliver billions of vaccines to those that need them, quickly, efficiently, and with finite resources. To do so requires intense and precise workflow management. So, what tools and techniques can prove useful in the quest to vaccinate the U.S. population? How can they effectively connect workflows and information across organizations and systems to effectively distribute, track and monitor vaccine distribution? And, as agencies look out at the next normal, what other types of tools will they need to safely and effectively manage a hybrid workforce and a more digitally savvy constituent population? Those are exactly the questions our host Constance Sayers, president of GovExec, will dig into on the first episode of The Digital Citizen with Chris Dilley, CTO for State and Local Government at ServiceNow and his colleague Tom Yeatts, Global Head of State, Local, and Regional Government Solutions. Check out what they have to say!

Artificial Intelligence: Two words we've all heard before. But when asked to actually explain what this technology does and how it impacts our lives, how many people can offer up a comprehensive answer? Not too many, it turns out. It's time to change that. Introducing Machine Momentum, a podcast where we aim to demystify artificial intelligence and machine learning for government leaders once and for all. On this episode, Constance Sayers, President of GovExec, sits down with Jim Smid, Chief Technology Officer of Iron Bow Technologies, to discuss what AI is — and what it isn't.

There's no doubt that data today is a valuable resource: It fuels a new age of information and a new suite of tools, including artificial intelligence and machine learning, which are sharpening decision-making for government leaders and automating monotonous tasks for government workers, among other benefits. But data comes with a dark side: Mountains of data need storage, sorting and cleaning; incomplete data can leave algorithms biased or unhelpful and a new wave of data privacy laws bring with them questions and requirements around data use and anonymization. On this episode of AI Tipping Point — a podcast series from Government Executive in collaboration with NVIDIA, World Wide Technology and NetApp that aims to answer the question: “If 2019 was the ‘tipping point' for AI, then what's ahead?” — host Constance Sayers, President of Government Executive Media Group, discusses the double-edged sword of data with Greg Smithberger, director of the Capabilities Directorate and CIO for the National Security Agency, and Kirk Kern, Chief Technology Officer at NetApp.
When it comes to integrating any emerging technology into existing operations, government leaders are often met with a mixture of excitement and hesitancy from staff. Now that AI has begun to trickle into workflows, how can agency leaders ensure the technology is integrated securely and efficiently into existing infrastructure — both technological and human? This is the question we explore on this episode of AI Tipping Point, a podcast series from Government Executive in collaboration with NVIDIA, World Wide Technology and NetApp that aims to answer the question: “If 2019 was the ‘tipping point' for AI, then what's ahead?” In this episode, host Constance Sayers, president of Government Executive Media Group, speaks with Jamie Milne, senior engagement manager at World Wide Technology, who offers his insights from years of applying predictive analytics, Big Data and AI at large in the public and private sectors alike. Moreover, two members of the U.S. Secret Service — Jonah Hill, senior cyber policy adviser and Ryan Moore, special agent in charge — weigh in on both the practical and policy aspects of embedding AI into operations.
When you envision a world powered by artificial intelligence, do you think of a machine-powered utopia or a dystopia where robots replace humans in the workforce and reign supreme? Fears about AI are common in today's society. While it's important to examine the potential downsides of every new technology, these fears have the potential to overshadow the potential good AI can — and does — do. In our second episode of MachineKind, a new podcast from Government Executive in collaboration with NVIDIA, Dell Technologies and GAI, Inc. that aims to examine the art of the possible in artificial intelligence, host Constance Sayers, President of Government Executive Media Group will speak with guests Cameron Chehreh, Chief Technology Officer and Vice President of Dell Technologies Federal and Dr. Jean Vettel, Senior Science Lead and Neuroscientist at the U.S. Combat Capabilities Development Command Army Research Laboratory, about AI falsehoods — and what exactly the technology is really capable of.
In 1956, a group of scientists gathered at Dartmouth University in Hanover, New Hampshire, to work on a summer research project. This project was related to the new field of what were then called automatic computers, but what we now know as “artificial intelligence.” Artificial intelligence seems like a new thing, but it's actually been around longer than many think. This is what we'll be examining in the first episode of “Machinekind,” a new podcast from Government Executive in collaboration with Nvidia, Dell and GAI, dedicated to exploring the art of the possible in artificial intelligence. In this episode, host Constance Sayers, president of the Government Executive Media Group, speaks with Jay Lambke, the president of GAI whose technology career dates back to late 1980s, and Dr. Alexander Kott, chief scientist at the Army Research Lab, to discuss the evolution of AI research and where things stand with the technology today, especially in the public sector.
