California developed a statewide platform for Californians to share details on how AI is affecting their work and our economy, and what the state should do about it. The feedback will be used to inform and guide state policy leaders on this new technology.
Minnesota IT Services and the Department of Revenue built an AI-powered bill-review system on tools the state already owned — SharePoint, Microsoft Azure, and a secure government instance of OpenAI — with no new infrastructure or vendor contracts. A web scraper monitored the Minnesota Legislative Revisor’s website and captured newly introduced bills in real time. These bills were queued in SharePoint, then routed through Azure Functions where a custom OpenAI prompt analyzed, tagged, and summarized each bill. Results, including relevance scores and summaries, were returned to SharePoint for immediate staff review. The system processes bills in parallel at speeds up to 100 bills per minute. ChatGPT evaluates each bill’s content for relevance, statutory changes, and impact across divisions.
The Morongo Band of Mission Indians built a proprietary chatbot trained on decades of Morongo legislative history that serves as an AI-driven legal repository. Officials now get answers in 10 to 15 seconds instead of 10 to 15 minutes.
The court launched an AI communications platform as a pilot with Amazon Web Services using CloudHesive ConnectPath. The system includes a multilingual virtual assistant that gives residents 24/7 access to court information via text messaging in English and Spanish, delivering real-time links to virtual hearings, court schedules and notices, FAQs, instructional videos, documentation, and contact information for public defenders and prosecutors. The county also plans to add self-service kiosks in participating town halls so residents can pay fines locally or online rather than traveling to the Mays Landing courthouse.
