Édouard Philippe: Transforming the State through AI for more efficient public services
Proposal put forward by Édouard Philippe on July 5, 2026. Topic: Governance and Public Tools. The observatory also publishes quotes from 13 other public figures on this topic.
It is also time today to put AI at the service of the State, to transform our State through AI in order to have more efficient public services; to have decisions issued in half a second instead of 6 months; to have fewer officials stuck behind a desk, and more in the field in contact with the public.
Original quote (French)
Il est aussi temps aujourd'hui de mettre l'IA au service de l'Etat, de transformer notre État grâce à l'IA pour avoir des services publics plus efficaces ; pour avoir des décisions rendues en une demi-seconde au lieu de 6 mois ; pour avoir moins d'agents bloqués derrière un bureau, et plus sur le terrain au contact du public.Source: edouardphilippe.fr · archived copy
