VIJAYAWADA: The State government plans to utilise Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance administrative efficiency, K Dinesh Kumar, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Real-Time Governance Society (RTGS), announced at a workshop hosted by Google in New Delhi on Thursday.

The event followed the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Google and RTGS to explore AI applications in governance.

Speaking at the workshop, Kumar outlined Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s vision for transparent, efficient, and citizen-friendly governance powered by AI.
