White House Launches America.gov AI Chatbot with Google's Gemini
President Trump announced America.gov, an AI chatbot to help people find government services. Google confirmed its Gemini model is involved.
President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that the White House is launching America.gov, an AI chatbot designed to help people find government services and information.
Google confirmed it is a partner on the launch and that its AI model Gemini is involved. It remains unclear whether other AI companies also contributed to the launch.
The announcement marks a direct move by the federal government into consumer-facing AI tools for public services. The chatbot is intended to simplify how citizens locate government information.
The launch comes amid broader scrutiny of AI reliability. CNN recently reported that the U.S. military nearly launched an armed operation against a Chinese vessel it believed was carrying components for nuclear weapons, aborting the mission after realizing the threat was an AI hallucination.
That incident underscores the stakes as governments adopt AI systems for critical functions. The White House has not yet detailed how America.gov will handle accuracy or oversight.
