The AI revolution is upon us, and it will certainly have an impact on local governance.
“Let’s have an open conversation about its use,” says this week’s podcast guest, Rochelle Haynes, Managing Director of Bloomberg Philanthropies’ What Works Cities initiative at Results for America.
Haynes, who previously served as Chief of Staff at New York City’s Department of Homeless Services, saw firsthand what happens when policy and politics clash.
“A lot of fears out there are about losing jobs,” she continued. “But we need to show people that this is about making your job more effective. The human touch is still needed. AI is just the tool to [streamline] the data and priorities for cities.”
Join us for an episode about what local leaders are doing to take advantage of the coming technology and, as Mayor Reed says, “really move the needle” on focused, effective governing.
