UK Launches GOV.UK Chatbot For Public Services

The UK's Government Digital Service will add an AI chatbot to the GOV.UK app in early 2026, then roll it out across the GOV.UK website used by government departments and services. Built on OpenAI technology with a retrieval-augmented generation model, GOV.UK Chat will combine departmental content into single conversational answers and follows a 1,000-user pilot and extensive red-teaming to fix accuracy issues.
