Government AI adoption is expected to rapidly accelerate in 2025, with 84% of government decision makers saying in a recent global study, Your Journey to a GenAI Future: A Strategic Path to Success for Government, that their organizations are planning to invest in GenAI in the next fiscal year. Will these investments spark a new age of productivity and efficiency? Or will the wave of AI hype crash on the rocks of government red tape, poor data quality and sophisticated crime?
Government experts from global data and AI and leader SAS shared their thoughts.

Internal obstacles to effective government AI usage will persist
«2025 will mark a greater gap between the perceived benefits of data and AI, and governments’ ability to benefit from it. There will be more funding for AI initiatives, but agencies will continue to face challenges deriving value from them due to a lack of digitalization, clear processes and data skills.»
– Ensley Tan, Lead for Public Sector Consulting, SAS Asia Pacific
Unstructured data will be a gold mine for AI and productivity
«Fueled by the need for efficiency and ever dwindling resources, in 2025 governments will begin tapping unstructured data sources with AI to not only speed up processes but better inform policy and decision making. The days of throwing bodies at a problem are ending.»
– Ian Kramer, Senior Manager, US Health Care Customer Advisory, SASGovernment AI fears and tolerances will have huge economic impacts
«Our world will see the emergence of an ‘algorithmic divide’ between governments that embrace AI innovation and those that fear it. Countries that innovate will thrive. Those that let AI fears guide them will see slower economic growth and reduced competitiveness and productivity.»
– Shaun Barry, Global Director, Risk, Fraud & Compliance Solutions, SAS
