The UK Government's Incubator for AI (I.AI) has published five assurance principles for the deployment of AI technologies for the public good. They are all familiar - in line with a consensus on what constitutes good practice in the responsible handling of data - but with the organisation expected to play an important role in central government AI initiatives, it is worth setting out what measures are expected. https://lnkd.in/ed6_vQVf #ai #ukgovernment

Interesting stuff, and whilst the five principles were published as a white paper in 2023 (which your article links to) it's good to see this is moving forward. It doesn't look like they extend to Local Government (yet); in contrast the Scottish Government has created an AI register for systems in use or in development within the Scottish public sector https://scottishairegister.com/ It's pretty sparsely populated at present though, and although the UK Government have sought to define this, I suspect many still ask the question "what is AI".
