The time for widespread government adoption of generative AI has come. As Federal agency leaders work to realize AI’s potential to improve productivity and boost innovation, they are shifting from experimenting with AI to deploying and scaling it across their agencies. At the forefront of this shift are efforts to reinvent citizen services, modernize countless lines of code, and automate workflows. Success demands not only the right use cases, but also an open and trusted technology architecture – built on a hybrid-by-design cloud infrastructure – that scales the secure and compliant use of AI models across multiple Federal IT environments. Understanding and achieving the right combination of breakthrough technologies and expertise is the key to creating unique value from AI today. […]

GenAI is moving from experimentation to production. In this session, Federal agency leaders will learn how GenAI can be deployed to create value for their agencies with responsible AI – using watsonx, an AI and data platform for generative AI and machine learning. With watsonx, agencies can train foundation models with their own trusted data and apply governance and guardrails – empowering AI use responsibly across processes, streamlining key workflows, and managing compliance with emerging AI regulations. Learn how your agency can multiply the impact of responsible AI and leverage new opportunities. […]

Hear from IBM leaders on how we implemented digital transformation across all areas of our organization, and how Federal agency executives can benefit from our experience. Learn how we evaluated and modernized our organization’s processes, products, operations, and technology stack to enable continual, rapid, customer-driven innovation. While every organization’s digital transformation implementation is different, our use cases may provide valuable insight as you plan and lead your agency’s digital transformation. […]

Government IT executives are closely monitoring GenAI development, with 38% of leaders evaluating its impact on workplace capabilities, according to an IBM survey. Learn how IBM’s Analysis and Renovation Catalyst (ARC), a code discovery and analysis tool base extended with GenAI, can drive code modernization and unlock AI’s transformative potential in the workplace. ARC leverages linguistic theory and data science to parse legacy code, build associations, and create a language-neutral abstraction (model), and then generates business rules, modernized java code, and natural language code descriptions enhanced using GenAI technologies. This integration streamlines operations, enhances user interaction, and facilitates data migration. In this session, explore the challenges agencies face in application modernization and learn about tools for intelligent automation and mainframe modernization. […]

Quantum computers are expected to unlock immense operational and research potential, but can also pose risks to many of the encryption algorithms used to secure the digital economy. In this session, Federal leaders working on these issues will uncover new insights on harnessing the anticipated benefits of quantum computing and quantum acceleration, while also mitigating the potential risks with quantum-safe technologies. We’ll explore how Federal organizations can modernize their enterprises for the quantum era. […]

Welcome to the age of value creation with AI. Technology is only as valuable as the ecosystem it enables. Federal IT leaders seeking to incorporate generative AI must help their teams address challenges with inferencing costs, AI trustworthiness, energy efficiency, portability, and leveraging enterprise data effectively and securely. Addressing these challenges requires not just innovation, but also the right type of AI strategy – one built on the collective power of an open, healthy AI community. Join us to learn about the latest IBM technologies designed to scale enterprise AI across agencies – and how agency leaders can unpack what a winning AI strategy looks like. […]
