#98: Environment Agency: Reusability & Common Problem Solving
Chris Cope, Digital Programme Director at the Environment Agency, and Ed Pikett, Director Central Goverment Technology and Transformation at Hitachi Solutions Europe, sit down with Editor Sam Birchall to discuss how public sector organisations can step away from building systems from scratch, and work to intelligently leverage and reuse work done by other teams within government.
We take a closer look at the work done by Chris and Ed as part of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs 'Smart Environmental Regulation Programme' - and how this provides a model for collaborating on common problems across government.

#97: Capturing the value of Generative AI in Government
Generative AI, popularised by ChatGPT, creates content by learning from a vast corpus of existing content and then using patterns from that data to generate fresh content - and has the potential to transform information retrieval across government data silos, and internal and citizen-facing customer service. But how can government organisations maximise the value of this transformative technology, while minimising the risk?
We're joined by KJ Lian, Global Head of Data at Amazon Web Services, and friend of the podcast, Deepak Shukla, Data and Analytics Lead for Public Sector at Amazon Web Services, to dig deeper into the promise of Generative AI.

#95: How can Generative AI enable Connected Government?
Friend of the podcast Deepak Shukla returns to talk with Sam about one of the hottest topics in government transformation right now - the role of AI in enabling better government delivery.
Deepak leads on data and analytics for public sector at Amazon Web Services in the UK and Ireland, and will be helping to host a discussion on the value of Generative AI in the public sector at the upcoming Government Transformation Summit (22 November 2023, ETC Venues, 133 Houndsditch, London).

#94: What next for Data Interoperability in Government?
Data interoperability refers to the ability of different systems, technologies, or software to access and use shared data - something clearly crucial for government attempts to overcome silo-based decision-making and data collection, while respecting the circumstances under which data may have been collected from citizens.
We sit down with CGI's Vice President of Consulting, Richard Buckley, to understand how government can build upon the current approach to data utility, and deliver better frontline outcomes.
