🏛 ✨ New Blog post alert! 🗒 At CivCheck, we work closely with our city partners to help them decide when to use Augmented Intelligence versus Artificial Intelligence for their specific needs. Our goal is to ensure that every solution delivers real value and efficiency while maintaining human accountability and oversight. This balance is at the heart of what we do, and it’s critical to using AI responsibly in public services. Check out our CEO’s latest thoughts on this important distinction!

Last week our CEO had the opportunity to speak at the DenAI Summit on the same stage as other incredible AI visionaries like Reid Hoffman, Eric Schmidt, and Phaedra Ellis-Lamkins. In fact, her presentation was referenced and quoted by The Colorado Sun twice! (see comments for more details)
