The U.S. General Services Administration just rolled out a OneGov partnership with Perplexity, the AI search startup led by CEO Arav Srinivas. What's the deal? Federal agencies now get streamlined, secure access to cutting-edge AI models—think faster adoption, tighter security protocols, and less bureaucratic hassle. This move aligns with the White House's broader AI Action Plan, pushing government operations toward smarter, AI-driven infrastructure. For tech watchers, it's another signal that AI procurement is moving from pilot programs to full-scale deployment across public sector systems.
