AGP Executive Report

Last update: 42 minutes ago

AI in Public Safety: A Craighead County AI agent cut dispatchers’ non-emergency call load by 56%, handling nearly 5,000 calls in a month. But it initially directed crash callers to file reports online, highlighting the risks of automating public services. Drone Delivery: Bentonville-based Walmart and Zipline plan to add 300 delivery sites nationwide, expanding a service already operating at 21 locations in Arkansas and Texas. Research & Energy: Arkansas State is investing $2.6 million to expand animal-health research, while a Meta-backed 250-megawatt solar farm has broken ground in the state. University Leadership: University of Arkansas System President Jay Silveria will leave for Purdue, where he is set to become president in February 2027. Defense Technology: Lockheed Martin is expanding its Camden operations with a $420 million investment.
