In this post, we will explore the use of generative artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots as a natural language alternative to the service catalog approach. We will present an Amazon Web Services (AWS) architecture pattern to deploy an AI chatbot that can understand user requests in natural language and provide interactive responses to user requests, directing them to the specific systems or services they are looking for. Chatbots simplify the content navigation and discovery process while improving the customer experience.

The US Federal Government has endless opportunity to lead the way as well as adopt best practices for how the latest technologies, including generative artificial intelligence (AI), can be leveraged to fulfill its various missions. Yvette Cesario, director of national security sales at Amazon Web Services (AWS) Worldwide Public Sector (WWPS), was the guest on the seventh episode of the AWS Behind the Cloud vodcast and shared her insights about how generative AI has endless opportunities for the US Federal Government to leverage to transform its operations and missions.

In this post, we cover an Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud infrastructure with a modular architecture that enables you to explore and take advantage of the benefits from different Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)-based generative AI resources in a flexible way. This solution provides several benefits, along with faster time-to-market and shorter development cycles.

From check-in through departure to the airfield and then back through the baggage halls, technology can transform the experience of airport passengers, partners, and staff. The UK’s Manchester Airports Group (MAG), which runs Manchester, London Stansted, and East Midlands airports, invests in this transformation. Read this post to learn how MAG has created a technology and data strategy in collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to integrate the elements of its complex ecosystems and deliver efficiencies.

The International University of Applied Sciences (IU) maintains 90 percent of its course content online. Through its online programs, IU aims to give people worldwide access to highly individualized education, enabling them to further enrich their lives. The large majority of IU’s infrastructure runs on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Read this post to learn why IU worked directly with AWS experts through the Experience-Based Acceleration (EBA) program to expand their automated video generation pipelines to be more scalable, modular, and robust.

City Colleges of Chicago (CCC)—the largest community college system in Illinois and one of the largest in the nation—participates in two no-cost Amazon Web Services (AWS) initiatives to advance and develop undergraduate technical programs. The AWS Machine Learning University Educator Enablement Program (MLU EEP) and the Skills to Jobs Tech Alliance connect early career talent to in-demand technical jobs globally, including in Illinois. Read this post to learn more.

Healthcare organizations invest heavily in technology and data. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) empowers healthcare organizations to leverage their investments in robust data foundations, improve patient experience through innovative interactive technologies, boost productivity to help address workforce challenges, and drive new insights to accelerate research. This post highlights three examples of how generative AI on Amazon Web Services (AWS) is being used in healthcare and discusses ways to leverage this technology in a responsible, safe way.

ASTERRA, an Israel-based geospatial and Earth observation company, uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help water utilities and a number of industries identify and mitigate pipeline leaks. ASTERRA uses AWS to derive intelligence and insights from beneath the surface of their largest installations and to bypass the need to break ground and dig for leaks. Read this post to learn how AWS has helped ASTERRA overcome traditional on-premises infrastructure limitations and to accelerate the development of solutions for anticipating and mitigating failures, saving water, energy, and avoiding carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions as a result.

In 2022, Emory launched the AI.Humanity initiative to explore the societal impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) and influence its future development to serve humanity. Emory aims to be a leading advocate for ethical use of AI and a top destination for students and faculty seeking to understand and apply its transformative technologies. Read this blog post to learn how Emory uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) to support the computing needs of AI.Humanity.

Applications and user experiences are poised to be reinvented with generative artificial intelligence (AI), and the public sector is no exception. Governments, education institutions, nonprofits, and health systems must constantly adapt and innovate to meet the changing needs of their constituents, students, beneficiaries, and patients. If used responsibly, this powerful technology can open doors to endless possibilities to increase creativity, productivity, and progress.
