Yes, Wednesday meeting on transports, a community barbecue Thursday Warrensburg and then I have the meeting of the 250° committee Thursday evening I have a forum on the leadership of the Chamber, Friday morning Sunday at St. Michael's and then Monday I have a meeting of the Navy League So this is all I have Ok, some comments from the police officers Ok. Offers and contracts. Sign of the unique source CPI Telecom.

This is a unique source for CPI Telecom. The equipment must be compatible with the existing system and changing supplier for our telephone systems would cause serious discomfort. The announcement has already been published so today it only needs a signature.

I propose to sign for the unique source CPI Telecom. Are you all in agreement? Yes? Okay. New activity. Preview of the provider's accounting.

I ask for the approval of the provider's accounting in the event of a revision.

I propose to approve the provider's accounting in the event of a revision. Are you all in agreement?

Okay. Discussion on the policy of IA technology.

So, the reason why I'm here today is because interest has been expressed for the use of IA technology when it comes to conducting various activities in the country. So, when we talk about IA, it is generally just a suite of packages built on the backend. For example, if you use Google to search for something, it shows you results. IA instead has the ability to analyze and put together those results in a significant way that you require. So anyway, the reason why I'm here in front of you today is because I think we need to establish guidelines on the correct use of IA and on how it interacts within the container. So, Every time you get those results through IA, it's called IA generative. So, it's generating results and there are many different things that we can discuss on how it will do these things or on their applications. So, there are applications that IA uses throughout the county. You could use it in the office of the cadastro, in the exactorial office, You could use it, you know, in the emergency service or in the sheriff's office. I mean, agricultural finance, any of those types of things where it could be used. But the real question is how to use it correctly. And that's why I'm here. So we did some research and I created a bunch of politics. I sent you emails to each of the commissioners and to the Human Resources Office. So what people don't want us to do is to take away their ability to be productive and to use this as a multiplier of strength, as a tool to be used to be able to manage business when appropriate. The reason why we will publish this guide and insert it in our book of policies is because when those results are obtained, when people insert those data, it is our responsibility as accountants and elected officials to use it correctly and not to insert anything within an open data model that could be used as public or private information or things like that. So I think it's time to define and establish a series of guidelines that we can implement and respect. And so, for example, a great use of IA for me, you know, is formatting an email, you know, when you write it. As long as it doesn't contain personal data or all those other things that you don't want to put in there. It could, you know, format a promemory or something like that. However, when it comes to taking data from the count and working them through an IA model, we must carefully analyze how they will be used and what will be inserted. So I'm not talking about any of these currently in use when it comes to how to format them in the best way. There are many excellent uses, but there are also some precautions we want to take However, as I said, I sent via email to the financial and legal officers my ideas, I received a response from the legal office and from human resources and I am open to any questions regarding the allowed uses or the things we must pay attention to or that we must prohibit. But I really think we have to spread a communication that says here are the allowed uses and probably we should form a committee composed of several members of the staff of the county but ultimately the thing I want to emphasize is that the IA is vulnerable to ghostly results or things like that things that are not necessarily true So when you perform a more in-depth analysis on the use of IA, one of the fundamental things to do is to always maintain human interaction or human element. You could be able to insert something and get results, but if you don't check those results, they could be inaccurate. So IA is not necessarily every comprehensive, it won't be right sometimes. I think this is the reason why we have to proceed methodically on how to exploit this technology.

As I said, it is available right now.

It is currently used in very non-performing ways, but it is still useful. However, I am open to any questions you may have regarding platforms or similar things. I know that Microsoft Copilot is one of the directions we will take, first of all because we are already in transition towards Microsoft 365, but an additional license will be required. And so, without going into too much technical aspects, we have a government tenant available and what we insert in our government tenant remains within our government tenant. So, for example, if you simply go on Gemini or something like that, that is called Public Artificial Intelligence. So, you wouldn't want to put information reserved by the Countess in an open IA source because they would end up becoming part of their IA model. As I said, this could be a long discussion, but I'm just trying to focus on how we will use it for the entire activity of the Countess.

It's an interesting future, I guess, for us. How the IA could be combined with a normative transparency. And how these can coexist. It will be Yes, product work.

And as I said, there are many aspects, but the material created for the purposes of the Contea is also subject to the law on transparency. We must also be aware of this.

There is someone out there who is leading the search for the best practices on

Well, there are many available sources. The current problem is that, although the IA exists for a long time, it is still in a phase of evolution. And this is precisely the nature of the IA itself. So I think that what we consider a good practice today will not necessarily be the same thing next week. For example, the federal government has its own IA models that it uses, in addition to those approved by the government itself. Does it exist? trying to remember, I think it's the evaluation and management of the federal risk, have published a list of IA models approved by the government. And most of these are not IA models aimed at the public. Most of them are corporate models or created specifically for government platforms. Sometimes there are IA models that work better in a particular market sector than others. It really depends on how that IA model is structured.

I appreciate the idea of the IA review committee.

Perhaps you, the human resources and our legal staff, could examine everything and create a document to be inserted in the manual.

I like training, personal development, educational prerequisites and the annual compliance course. I think this is also quite important. So...

Yes, as I said, the great cautions that, as I said, we all want to be transparent in their use. So I know that the commissioner of the eastern district and I have talked a bit about an IA model that people could potentially use on the front end of the website or on the telephone system to drive someone to a certain office for a specific need. Something like that. However, we should make sure that the public is aware that such results are generated by an IA engine that we use.

Well, mine too. Brian told me about this to see if my head spins.

Well, I think it will also happen that the software packages that we currently use will begin to integrate a model of IA in them. So I have a document that has been created that examines and evaluates this particular approach to ensure that it is in accordance, you know, with our policy of Contea once established and also with any legal regulations.

I thought Sheila would have a good comment, you know, while we develop we should highlight or show in the bottom right corner which edition is this, which is the date, because I think our modules will continue to be replaced and improved. I think it's always better to look.

Brian, for any work product we use, we should insert a disclaimer or a note at the bottom of the page or something like that to indicate that parts of it have been generated through EI.

Now, that would be something that the committee should examine and establish regarding specific use cases and things like that. But the part related to transparency is that, if you want to maintain the trust of the public, In the results we produce, we must fundamentally be able to show how we produce them. But at the moment, as far as I know, there is no package that Contea has, we will make an inventory for safety, but there is no package that I know that Contea currently uses that has some kind of integrated A modeling.

Now, I would say to proceed, and I like the preliminary training. Request. The personnel must complete a basic training on the ethics of the IAEA and on the safety of the staff. I think, you know, we also have to instruct our employees and they must be aware of...

Yes, I think that our training on safety will also include part of this training. And as I said, it doesn't have to be anything too in-depth, but in general you have to check the results to verify the accuracy and the veracity. You should not include anything that contains information of personal identification or related to IPA, nothing like that. Who will be part of the committee? Well, we'll probably start with me, the legal office and Sheila, then... We'll see how it goes.

You have to send a draft of this document to all the other elected officials and... I think it would be a good idea. I think it would be a good idea. What I was talking about. What worried me the most is that information... not public, ended up in the... Silvia. As I said, my head was spinning when we finished talking about it, but that was my only concern. I'll wait a moment while I drink some fish and chips.

Sorry. I don't know if it works well there, as you thought.

I've already seen the same thing. He has already put a sign on my house. He congratulated the cowboys.

Then the neighbors nearby fired fireworks because they lost.

I had to wake up on Monday morning and pretend a smile.

Let's split.

Ok, let's not waste any more time here. Well, let's move on to the approval of the purchase of EMS capital for the armadillos of the equipment.

Good morning. This was an article rather requested in our capital improvements for several years.

We have never really had the opportunity to deal with it.

So, our crews are provided with an entire range of individual protective devices. It is rather robust, heavy, made of various pants, jackets, anti-projectile jackets and all these things. Traditionally, they carry them around in large bags from one station to another and there is really no place to put them back, so they carry them with them from and towards work, towards work. As you noticed in my email, we went on for a while until we had an accident a couple of weeks ago, in which it became a problem. So what we would like to do is buy professional armchairs for the equipment, which are 20x20 and mounted on wheels, so that they can be positioned in every area of ​​the station where they are best suited. will help to clean up most of the mess that is left on the floor with the equipment scattered everywhere and will allow them to keep everything to work in a clean environment without having to transport it back and forth. For 16 of these cupboards the total price is $ 20,500 including shipping according to the HBH Co-op. I think I've sent an update, there are about $99,000 left in our budget for this year.

So, when they change stations, they can put them in a bag and bring them back home.

But in this way, they shouldn't be kept in their vehicles or at home.

I need these contents.

I propose to approve the purchase in capital account of the cabinets for the EMS equipment for $ 20,500. Second.

Discussions? Favorable. Yes. The modification order for the minority building at the order of the day concerns this modification order and we have representatives of Architects Alliance.

is applied to them. We probably designed the doors a little badly in the new structure and consequently the hardware, the software... No electronic keychains. We will replace it with what is called... Exactly. Approach the places, right?

Exactly.

So there is an access to security in the structure and this served to move to a more economical system, but that met the needs of the structure and in particular in the future. These tassel readers concerned remote access to gateway systems. It's like a Wi-Fi reading system. And that modification order is a request from the safety consultant and the engineer to design the implementation of those gateway systems. And this is a price of $6,500 for this modification order. So I propose to approve this modification order of $6,500 per year from Alliance.

But what discussion? Who's in favor? I would say that we are still confirmed for March of next year. All right, we have some questions on hold. Not being in the right time to go to a session.

To the senses of section 610.021 of the statutes reviewed by Missouri, the commission will pass to a closed session to discuss as soon as possible. Section 3.
