UrbanLogiq Unveils Ethica: A Government-Grade Generative AI Insights Engine Chatbot

Announced on stage at the South by Southwest (SXSW) conference, Frontiers of Innovation Day at Canada House, UrbanLogiq, a Vancouver-based govtech firm, introduces Ethica, their own government-grade generative AI chatbot.

Ethica is designed around a family of expert domain fine-tuned models that have unique access to government databases and generates responses and explanations, from users asking questions using plain language.

"The transformative potential is immense when government agencies harness generative AI. A small town public servant with limited resources having access to world-class domain expertise and data at their fingertips can transform the way they make decisions. At UrbanLogiq, we're leading this change, ethically and transparently. We believe in opening new pathways to democratize this technology for government agencies of all sizes, to better serve the public in a safe and secure manner,” said Mark Masongsong, UrbanLogiq CEO.

Governments have access to the public's sensitive information, and are held to a higher standard for data security and compliance. It is paramount for them to not only implement but require robust protections to ensure citizen data is secure.
