When your grandma has a better digital experience shopping online than veterans accessing their benefits, we have a problem. Here's the reality of government infrastructure:  1️⃣ Most traffic routes through Virginia data centers  2️⃣ Security requirements slow everything down  3️⃣ Citizens expect commercial-grade experiences The future of government services isn't in centralized data centers - it's in distributed, responsive infrastructure that works wherever citizens are. At Publicus, we're seeing this firsthand: agencies want to innovate, but legacy infrastructure holds them back. The key isn't just modernizing technology—it's rethinking how we deliver government services entirely. What's your experience with government digital services? Fast and smooth, or time to upgrade? #GovTech #DigitalTransformation #Infrastructure #Innovation

The future of AI isn't just Silicon Valley - it's BRICS. While everyone focuses on US-EU AI competition, something fascinating is happening: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa are quietly building their own AI ecosystem. Why it matters:  1️⃣ Shared development reduces costs  2️⃣ Local solutions for local problems  3️⃣ Alternative to Western AI dominance The challenge? Five different regulatory approaches trying to work together. Sound familiar? At Publicus, we see this pattern constantly: good collaboration intent meeting complex implementation reality. What's your take: Can BRICS create a viable alternative to Western AI leadership? #AI #Innovation #GlobalTech #BRICS

Biden's tech legacy shows a clear pattern: America wants to lead in AI while managing its risks. But there's a disconnect between ambition and implementation. The scorecard: 1️⃣ AI Executive Order focused on safety & innovation 2️⃣ Cybersecurity mandates for zero-trust 3️⃣ CHIPS Act for semiconductor leadership 4️⃣ New Office of National Cyber Director The reality? While the vision is strong, implementation is where government often struggles. As cybersecurity expert Renee Wynn notes, "Everybody is just learning how to manage cybersecurity better." At Publicus, we see this pattern repeatedly: good policy intent meeting complex implementation challenges. This is exactly why we're building tools to help organizations navigate these requirements effectively. What's your take on Biden's tech policies? Are they helping or creating new barriers? #GovTech #AI #Cybersecurity #Innovation

Ontario's new AI regulations highlight a growing challenge: the gap between government innovation and implementation. Bill 194 requires public sector organizations to:  1️⃣ Implement cyber security programs  2️⃣ Follow new AI system regulations  3️⃣ Conduct privacy assessments  4️⃣ Report security breaches These regulations also apply to private sector partners, such as contractors. While these regulations aim to protect citizens, they create significant barriers for businesses working with government. The complexity of compliance means organizations often spend more resources on consultants than on actual innovation. At Publicus, we're building tools to help businesses navigate these requirements efficiently, allowing them to focus on what matters: creating value and driving innovation in the public sector.

Founder Joe Noss gave a presentation at the most recent AI Friends Meetup in Toronto focused on two things: 1️⃣ The Regional Artificial Intelligence Initiative (RAII) and how to receive funding 2️⃣ What Joe refers to as the 'SR&ED Mafia'---the consultants who take almost 10%-20% of funding from tech companies for writing simple grant applications. At Publicus, we are focused on disrupting old industries and making sure all businesses do not have to waste money on consultants or their own time when dealing with government. It's a challenging mission, but an important one!
