The new AI operating model for government: From adoption to impact
As AI becomes more widely used across government, the focus is shifting from encouraging adoption to ensuring the technology delivers meaningful improvements in public services and outcomes.
Global Government Forum's latest research, The new AI operating model for government, explores the priorities for making the most of AI across government.
Drawing on findings from the study, which was led by Lord Gus O'Donnell and based on interviews with 13 UK permanent secretaries and senior AI leaders, this webinar will examine four priority areas for the next phase of government AI:
Ambition and impact: Setting clear ambitions for AI, identifying where it can make the greatest difference and measuring its impact.
Joined-up government: Sharing successful approaches and capabilities across government while retaining the flexibility to innovate.
The future workforce: Preparing for how AI could change tasks, roles, skills and career pathways across the civil service.
Trust and accountability: Establishing the right approach to risk, transparency and accountability to support progress at pace.
