Governments have been placing forward various proposals to stimulate and facilitate the research on Artificial Intelligence, development of new solutions and the adoption of these technologies within their economy and society. Despite this enthusiasm, however, the adoption and deployment of AI technologies within public administrations faces many difficulties and barriers, limiting administrations to make maximize use of the benefits of the technology, ranging from the lack of quality data, ethical concerns, unawareness of what AI could mean, lack of expertise, legal limitations, the need for interorganizational collaboration and many more. AI strategy documents describe plans and goals in which they describe how to overcome the various issues and barriers of introducing AI in their societies. By analysing these initiatives through the policy instrument literature, this research reveals a strong focus on initiatives focused at improving data-related aspects and collaboration with the private sector, but limited initiatives are described to improve internal capacity or funding.
