As technology has changed the landscape of our lives, so has it changed the way the government conducts its operations. New technologies have revolutionised the way government offers its services to its citizens and has streamlined its administrative roles…
Recent tech developments in the emerging spaces are progressively being used by governments to improve the efficiency of the services they offer- artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies can allow government to keep important and vital records protected and confidential within a secure ledger. This will also be felt across national defence initiatives.
Technologies such as:
- Advanced robotics,
- Automation
- Artificial intelligence and,
- Machine learning
will only continue to progress the government sector and will result in a sustained growth of high-tech jobs within the public sector. While technology can replace manual labour it expands high-level decision-making productivity and increases demand for high-tech employment.
The most significant challenge the Government faces is data security. Cybersecurity issues continue to increase. A data breach can so much as make a government fall. Luckily this is preventable.
