Artificial intelligence (AI) is creating new opportunities for state and local governments to improve services, strengthen operations, and address community needs. Turning that ambition into real-world impact requires a broad foundation that includes not only computing capacity, but also the infrastructure, energy, workforce, security, and governance to support AI reliably and responsibly.

This webinar explores what it takes to build intelligent civic infrastructure that supports growing AI demands within real-world constraints. State and local IT and infrastructure experts will discuss how to approach AI readiness more holistically; coordinate technology, energy, workforce, and security planning; and create a foundation that can evolve as community needs and AI capabilities change.
