"Reducing bureaucracy costs by 25% by 2029, offering more public services online and using artificial intelligence in government and in courts are some of the projects Chancellor Friedrich Merz's cabinet agreed to this past week. Among the plans for integrating AI into everyday use is an online platform for export-based businesses to bundle information on export regulations and credit options, and expediting visa processing by using AI to review an applicant's documents."
"The Weimatar can speak 100 languages and is promised to be an example of "fair AI, that protects creativity and strengthens our democratic public sphere." Its purpose is not only to more easily reach a broader audience on social media, but also to save time internally at the ministry with, for example, training videos that can be made quickly and kept up to date."
Chancellor Friedrich Merz's cabinet approved projects to reduce bureaucracy costs by 25% by 2029, increase online public services, and deploy artificial intelligence across government and courts. The Modernization Agenda includes an online platform for export businesses to consolidate export regulation and credit information, and AI-driven review to expedite visa processing. The High-Tech Agenda prioritizes AI among six key technologies alongside biotechnology and microelectronics. The government unveiled an AI avatar, the Weimatar, able to speak 100 languages to reach audiences and produce internal training videos. Leading AI researchers caution that political decision-makers may not yet understand AI sufficiently to ensure fair, responsible use.
