Indiana Chief Information Officer Tracy Barnes, MSL said the recent interest in AI finally gives technology leaders a chance to clean their data. “It has truly forced us and a number of our agencies to start respecting and recognizing that data quality and data management has to be a part of any AI or [machine learning] journey and initiative,” Barnes said. “… It’s really kind of forcing us to evaluate our data strategy and pushing our agencies how we’re capturing, managing, tracking and organizing that data in a much more practical fashion that allows it to be ingested and provide right, expected outcomes for something like an AI engine.” After more than three years of development, Indiana last November launched Pivot, a personalized recommendation engine for the state’s workforce: (Indiana Department of Workforce Development). By combining the data of six state agencies involved in education, training and employment, Pivot helps job seekers sort through state workforce programs and find new work or training to advance their careers. Barnes told StateScoop that IOT followed up that project last July with a public beta test of an AI chatbot, which he said feeds on the information hosted on public state websites to help direct users to the answers they’re seeking. He said that, so far, it’s proving a more convenient option than the alternative of requiring website visitors to know the exact functions and acronyms of each state agency.
