A civil servant’s guide to getting AI projects off the ground
Webinar
There is huge and growing interest in artificial intelligence across government, as there is in every sector. But, even while ministers and managers talk up the vast potential of AI, technologists continue to report difficulty in progressing pilots and exploratory exercises into broader – and more impactful – deployments.
Projects can face challenges such as the need for both senior and specialist skills, a lack of programme governance, and a requirement for funding models that better support innovation.
In this webinar discussion current and former senior officials discuss how civil servants working on AI initiatives can tackle such obstacles and give their work the best chance of flourishing.
Topics covered include:
- How to begin your AI journey
- Getting alignment and stakeholder buy-in
- Developing business cases and project plans
- How Border Force explored AI could improve efficiencies, delivering a proof of concept in just 12 weeks.
- What HMRC and GIAA are doing with AI
- Getting the right governance in place
- Demonstrating impact and ROI
