"Clutching at straws to make the poorly educated think he knows what he’s doing." Perhaps we need an AI Government? | |||

"The Govt has announced its plan to expand the use of AI to boost public sector growth and productivity. Clearly AI has a big part in our future lives but is it really needed to identify pot holes or get Civil Servants to work more than 30 hours a week ? Government and technology is usually a disaster in the making- shouldn't we leave this AI stuff to philanthropists like Elon Musk ?" Maybe Labour needs AI to make up for their distinct lack of real intelligence. However, anything that comes from AI will be exactly that. ARTIFICIAL! | |||

"The positive; Introducing AI into the civil service and public sector could be a game changer, particularly in terms of efficiency and headcount. Automating time consuming tasks, like form filling, through simple rule based systems would save significant time. For forms requiring metrics for approval or record-keeping, automation could streamline processes while making access much easier. AI could also improve customer service internal and external, by using AI to answer queries and recommend next steps, whilst tying this functionality into forms and request tracking, the public sector could deliver a seamless, efficient service. However, as the introduction of AI and the implications become understood in the public sector, I would expect strikes, more strikes and yes more strikes.... The negative; I’m concerned about the risks due to outsourcing these projects. Relying on third party providers will lead to spiralling costs through poorly managed contracts, which is a given and the inevitable vendor lock in will derail the financials, leaving future governments with escalating expenses." Lots of excellent points, thank you. | |||

Yes good points. 
But do you seriously think that Starmer would upset his union paymasters on the "headcount"? Oh! And efficiency in the public sector? Nay lad, can't be 'avin any of that efficiency malarkey round 'ere.
It would make the Tories 60 odd thousand look like a couple of mini buses. | |||

"Any attempt to get the UK up to speed with the AI revolution is to be welcomed. I’ve no time for Sunak , but he did try to get the ball rolling with that Summit he held a few months ago. Our MPs don’t seem to be discussing AI in parliament, when AI is potentially the next biggest Industrial Revolution, with the potential to change the way we work. We are miles behind already. Kids are being taught coding in schools, when AI is already (or will be) doing the coding for us. Kids aren’t getting taught anything meaningful or useful about AI and its uses. Countries around the world are already teaching their kids about AI " We are not miles behind already, we are doing well, so what gives you that impression? | |||

Government and technology is usually a disaster in the making- shouldn't we leave this AI stuff to philanthropists like Elon Musk ?" If it improves the public sector then great but will it lead to job losses or will the union's insist on no redundancies even if jobs are being done by AI. Also notice on the bbc report that the previous government had already started this and were investing in a super computer in Scotland. Labour pulled the plug on this project when they first took office. Now they need to restart over again wasting more money. | |||

"(1) AI doesn't exist. What does exist is clever code and impressive machine learning. (2) "AI" should already be used in most workplaces, and it's inevitable that it will come to government soon (and it's probably being used around the place already). Much of the civil service is drudgery, which can be automated. "AI" can help where it has not already been automated. Since it's cheap and inevitable, SKS loses nothing by promising this. He's fortunate that an easy to implement technology has appeared and he can look great and take credit for bringing in innovation. " Really good points as always TM. | |||

"AI driven trains - no striking drivers. AI in classroom - no striking teachers. AI Civil Servants - no working from home Is there a theme or plan to this?" To be honest, I would avoid AI in classroom. There are certain jobs which need a human touch and teaching children is one. Civil service and railways? We need to start using AI wherever possible. | |||

"It's been tried by Labour before - Harold Wilson's "White Heat of Industry' plans. It didn't happen then and it won't happen now. Why not? Because the Socialists have no comprehension of business nor entrepreneurship. Instead of seeing business as a means to grow prosperity, they see it as some kind of capitalist monster to suck taxes from.

AI implementation in the public sector can't be straightforward and off the shelf solutions would not be a viable option.

As an example middleware messaging will be critical but extremely challenging, leading to delays and bottlenecks in integration. There will also be endless integration licensing issues that need to be resolved and in the this space they don't ever move quickly, or economically. These outdated infrastructures are not ready for quick, scalable solutions, there will be demos that show what it could look like  Monitoring, reporting, and compliance will introduce heavy overheads to safeguard data security and trust.
Public sector AI requires builds that integrate secure, fragmented datasets while preventing manipulation or breaches that would undermine trust, and take the wheels off the project. It is a complex project, but the rewards if done correctly are enormous.
All of this would be moot, if it turns out to be a glorified "hello world"  | |||

The systemic issue that you bring up needs a wider overhaul, that is much, much more far-reaching than AI."We have moved on in terms of integration that would lend itself to really modernising the stack, which is needed. The beauty with AI build is to be able to contain the information in libraries, the questions that need asking to boost the process is, can we take legacy system data and move it into a bespoke libraries that will maintain integrity and allow us to eventually move away from the application / code it resides in today. If that was the direction, quick wins and tasks could be managed on a local library level, but I would suggest that is a beta capability proof of concept for the much larger program of works and to show delivery aspirations such as streamlining case management in healthcare or automating repetitive administrative tasks as you mentioned. I would 100% get behind any idea of centralisation of data from all public sector systems, that would allow future capabilities. It would cost billions but the investment would future proof us. | |||

" That is the beauty of capitalism, it moves on to better things rather than decaying like other systems such as communism that has come and gone. There are no purely capitalist nations in the civilised world. I can tell you one thing, capitalism works a so much better than communism no mattter how you try to slice an dice it
Capitalism certainly works in the sense that it provides a stable society for the majority. Whether it ‘works’ in the sense that it is fair for everyone is another debate
nothing is ever fair, ask someone in a communist state.
So we shouldn’t strive for better? Why the obsession with communism?
I have zero obsession with communism, I do however enjoy capitalism and will defend it.
if you believe you have an alternative to capitalism that isn't communist waffle dressed up, I'm all ears.
Yet the only person who has mentioned communism here is you. Is anyone looking to turn the U.K. into a communist state?
We live in a capitalist society with some socialist elements, like every other western nation. "I understand how our society is configured, but nobody mentioned the public services or any other type of shared service, it was a clear reference to private sector capitalism growing and changing. You seem to think there is something better? Maybe I misunderstood where you were coming from? | |||

"AI driven trains - no striking drivers. AI in classroom - no striking teachers. AI Civil Servants - no working from home Is there a theme or plan to this?" You seriously think working from home is an issue? That's one way of telling us you're just obsesssed with whatever the tabloids go on about.... | |||
