FITGov Webinar: AI & ChatGPT Implications in Procurement

Join the FITGov Summit for our webinar series as we explore topics related to Capital Planning and IT Modernization.

This session will focus on one of the new subject areas of FITGov that was added by the Government Technology and Services Coalition – Procurement. As modernization efforts accelerate, CIOs and enterprise IT teams have quickly realized the importance of procurement transformation to meet the needs of systems, software, and hardware. Procurement has emerged as an increasingly vital mechanism that also must adapt to IT modernization. One of the newest considerations is how AI and more specifically applications like ChatGPT will affect procurement strategy. The AI application ChatGPT is able to interact conversationally, making it possible to “answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests.”
