The GovAI Coalition Summit brought together government leaders, vendors, and innovators to talk about the future of AI in the public sector. But beneath all the excitement, one truth stood out: not everything labeled “AI” is actually meaningful for government.

In this episode of Untangled, we break down the state of GovTech AI after two major conferences, what local governments should be paying attention to, and what they should ignore. From the rise of custom software disguised as AI, to vendor red flags, to the reality of pilot projects that actually work, we get honest about what’s hype and what’s real.

We also talk about the black box problem, why data cleanup still matters, and why local government expertise—not AI branding—is the real differentiator in this new landscape.

For any CIO, CAO, or department leader navigating the AI gold rush, this episode cuts through the noise and brings clarity to where the market is headed.
