The Boldest Predictions for Federal Technology in 2019

“Predictions are hard, which is why Nextgov turned to industry leaders with a simple request: Give us your boldest prediction for federal IT. They dove into specific initiatives like the Defense Department’s Defense Enterprise Office Solutions contract and the General Service Administration’s Enterprise Infrastructure Solutions contract as well as the pros and pitfalls of artificial intelligence.” The predictions suggest that IT modernization will be the year’s priority, federal agencies will continue to adopt commercial tech towards this modernization, and that the government will move forward in harnessing data for improved machine learning and A.I. Lastly, some predictions see A.I. “will reach its tipping point…” and “hit the point of no return where AI has moved beyond the comprehension of even the savviest IT leaders. 2019 will be the year that AI becomes mainstream pushed to the masses but, simultaneously, AI capabilities and actions will also become more ambiguous.”
