The Government intends to embrace Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies as enablers of smarter governance to enhance effective delivery of services in the public sector.
Deputy Head of Public Service, Mr.
Amos Gathecha, underscored the government's commitment to integrate the latest aspects of technology including the AI to transform provision of service across all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs).
He told the opening session of the Kenya Association for Public Administration and Management (KAPAM) Symposium at the Kenya School of Government (KSG) in Mombasa that public service must keep up with the ever dynamic digital era to remain relevant within and without our borders. "Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept; it is a real-time tool that is already reshaping the operations of government." he added.
