"I know Beam says they save each worker 8 hours a week... but in my experience, Beam Notes saves me at least 8 hours every 2 days." That came from a practitioner at Fairfax County Department of Family Services, during our talk on leveraging AI to improve experiences and outcomes in human services at the APHSA -- American Public Human Services Association -- Summit this morning. The stats are one thing, but hearing a user blow past them is another. Beam's Mike Cheney joined Fairfax's Alycia Blackwell, Brahema Molubah, and Joseph Cox to talk about what responsible AI adoption actually looks like in child welfare. What changed, what didn't, and what it means when the people using the technology are the ones supporting children and families every day. Thank you to the Fairfax team and to APHSA for making space for these conversations. #APHSA2026 #HumanServices #ChildWelfare #ResponsibleAI
