The US government has launched an official AI chatbot named America.gov, designed to serve as a central portal for federal services and information. The platform aims to provide users with simple answers sourced exclusively from official government data, with plans to expand its capabilities next year to include actions like enrolling in Medicare or applying for a passport. While the chatbot utilizes Google's Gemini platform and reportedly incorporates SpaceXAI's Grok, its privacy policy states it will not retain user search history or messages, though details on how this aligns with handling personal data for future tasks remain unclear.
