Federal Leaders Weigh Autonomous Systems Amid Governance Gaps
A new survey of federal IT leaders shows that more than half of agencies are exploring agentic AI, with 15% already implementing or having implemented such systems. However, the survey also highlights concerns over governance, data, and oversight gaps, with 77% of leaders considering oversight frameworks essential, yet fewer having actually implemented them. The findings, released by Market Connections on behalf of ServiceNow, suggest that while there is a strong appetite for agentic AI, agencies must address these gaps to ensure successful adoption, as reported by Government Executive.
