AI and Public Standards 바카라 사이트 Committee announces review

The Committee on Standards in Public Life has today announced a review into artificial intelligence and its impact on standards across the public sector.

The words review into artificial intelligence above 4 images, the first of a book, the second of a person in front of a computer, the third of binary code and the fourth of a circuit board.

The Committee on Standards in Public Life has today announced a review into whether the existing frameworks and regulations are sufficient to ensure that high standards of conduct are upheld as technologically assisted decision-making is adopted more widely across the public sector.

Publishing the terms of reference for the inquiry today, Lord Evans, Chair of the Committee on Standards in Public Life said:

바카라 사이트Honesty, integrity, objectivity, openness, leadership, selflessness and accountability were first outlined by Lord Nolan as the standards expected of those who act on the public바카라 사이트s behalf.

바카라 사이트These principles have stood the test of time and are deeply embedded across much of the public sector - from the Civil Service and NHS bodies to local councils and schools. The increasing development and use of data and data-enabled technologies in our public services can potentially bring huge advantages in terms of pace and scale of service delivery, but there are some major ethical and practical challenges about what this means for accountability, objectivity and the other Nolan principles.

바카라 사이트As the Committee celebrates its 25th year as an advisory body conducting broad reviews of key ethical issues, we want to look at what the future holds for public services and help ensure that high standards of conduct continue to be 바카라 사이트built in바카라 사이트 to new ways of making decisions on the public바카라 사이트s behalf.

바카라 사이트We are keen to hear from individuals and organisations who are developing policy, systems or safeguards on the use of AI as we gather evidence for this review.바카라 사이트

The Committee expects to publish its report in the New Year.
