Expert panel discuss AI in Welsh public sector delivery

An expert group is due to meet to look at how Artificial Intelligence can be used to improve public services for everyone living in Wales.

The panel will discuss how to shape the ethical and effective adoption of AI in Welsh public sector delivery.

Members of the panel come from business and innovation fields, academia and social partnership backgrounds.

The first meeting of the AI Strategic Advisory Group will be hosted by cabinet secretary for economy, energy and planning, Rebecca Evans. 

Evans said: "Artificial Intelligence is bringing changes to all our lives.  It has the potential to significantly improve our public services, but in doing so we must ensure that it is deployed ethically.

"The First Minister recently announced £2.5 million for Welsh public services to ensure we are making the best use of AI; as well as the creation of a dedicated Office for AI within the Welsh Government.

"We are already a government committed to fair work, and Wales is a nation of cutting-edge development in technology. I want to bring these elements together to develop high standards for AI in Welsh public life."

The group includes Glyn Jones, chief digital officer, Welsh Government; Helen Arthur, director of workforce and organisational development, health and social care, Welsh Government; and Jas Pal Baydal, chief scientific advisor, Welsh Government.
