It also outlines the challenges and risks involved and discusses options for governance supporting safe and fair usage.
The paper focused on three potential areas for using AI, improving families’ experiences, enabling administrative efficiencies and supporting decision making.
It also raises some challenges and risks – such as fairness, accountability, privacy, transparency and accuracy – and ends with a discussion around regulation and governance.
