The Research and Innovation Foundation (RIF) on Friday announced the launch of a public consultation for its upcoming funding programme titled “AI in Gov’t”.

According to the announcement, the initiative aims to support the development of innovative artificial intelligence (AI) solutions tailored to address challenges faced by public sector entities.

The RIF is seeking input from all interested stakeholders to help shape the design of the programme.

Detailed information about the proposed funding scheme is available online, and stakeholders are invited to review the material and submit their feedback and suggestions.
