Artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics have boomed in the 21st century. These emerging and disruptive technologies are immersed in our lives, from apps in mobile devices, the purchases we make on the internet streaming platforms, and even court decisions and predictive policing. Together with science and certain needs, relevant implementations of AI and robotics arise, related to its transparency, resulting in biases, the kinds of applications that can be implemented, and the degree of workforce replacement in decision-making assistance. It is essential to analyze the widely used AI techniques, the application of these technologies in different sectors, the implications of AI and robotics on society and welfare, and more. The Handbook of Research on Applied Artificial Intelligence and Robotics for Government Processes presents state-of-the-art research on AI and robotics in different fields of knowledge, its benefits, applications, and implications. It features chapters containing theoretical and practical research that analyzes the transparency and expandability of AI in different fields, as well as the analysis of unexpected results, biases, and cases of discrimination. Covering topics such as criminal intelligence, artificial intelligence-based chatbots, and gender violence, this major reference work is an excellent resource for government officials, practitioners in the public sector, business administrators and managers, IT professionals, law enforcement, federal agencies, students and faculty of higher education, researchers, and academicians.
