AI triage of public-sector correspondence
What AI can assist with: AI classifies, summarizes, routes, and may suggest standard handling for incoming government correspondence while staff retain responsibility for substantive responses.
Practical meaning: a defined part of this workflow can be automated; judgement and exceptions remain human work.
Human responsibility: you set the rules, handle exceptions and approve results.

Evidence limits
