Red Hat’s John Dvorak on rethinking government acquisitions with AI

John Dvorak, Chief Technology Officer for Public Sector at Red Hat, discussed the evolution of AI in government services over the past year. He highlighted the growing interest in sovereign AI, where governments control AI systems and data, and the integration of complex AI systems, such as combining predictive and generative models. Dvorak also predicted significant changes in the acquisition process, with government agencies and contractors using generative AI to create sophisticated RFPs. Additionally, he emphasized the potential of federated learning to build models without accessing all data, which could be applied to various sectors like healthcare and cybersecurity.
