AI is making government MORE human. At USLege, we believe AI isn’t here to replace human interaction—it’s here to enhance it. On Forecasting Success with Ryan Brannan, USLege Co-Founder, Laura Carr, shared how AI can automate research-heavy tasks, giving policymakers, lobbyists, and government professionals more time to focus on what truly moves the needle: negotiation, communication, and human connection.
