AI Will Write Job Descriptions for More Open Federal Positions

May 4, 2026, 9:52 PM UTC

An artificial intelligence tool will help write federal job postings, the federal government’s human resources office says.

The tool, USA Class, uses an AI model trained on thousands of federal job descriptions that will allow managers in the government to generate boilerplate language for various duties, OPM said in a statement Monday.

“It turns out our friend AI is pretty good at a few things—digesting huge amounts of precedent data to train an underlying large language model and then being able to call upon that corpus to create new documents with a set of data input prompts,” OPM Director Scott Kupor wrotein a blog post.

The announcement is the latest effort by the Trump administration to weave AI into agency duties. Google recently struck a deal with the US Department of Defense to allow its AI systems to be used in classified settings, as White House officials prepare a policy memo outlining safeguards for national security agencies.
