Dive Brief: Google Public Sector on Tuesday launched a new Gemini agentic AI product designed for U.S. federal, state and local government services.

Dive Insight: A wave of AI developers have tailored their offerings for the public sector over the past couple of years.

Gemini’s agentic AI government services product is built on a secure platform that allows for monitoring of AI agents and risk management, according to Google.

“To deploy agentic capabilities in the public sector requires non-negotiable standards for security, confidentiality, and data sovereignty,” Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian said in a news release.

A majority reported their employer was using or exploring generative AI products, and 35% said they were using or piloting agentic AI, a more advanced tool that can take action without human input.
