About

The UK government has made significant commitments to using AI to transform public services. Delivering on those commitments depends on the quality and trustworthiness of the data those systems will rely on, and on getting the underlying governance right.

This panel examines the technical and governance choices that shape digital public services. Privacy-enhancing technologies, privacy-preserving digital identity frameworks, and open standards can help data to move through public systems in ways that people can rely on. Together, they form the architecture on which trustworthy AI-enabled services can be built.

The panel brings together perspectives from government, technical practice, and applied research to explore where these approaches are working and where more work remains to be done.

Panel moderator: Emma Thwaites, Strategic Advisor on Global Policy and Corporate Affairs at the Open Data Institute
