Northern Ireland's Draft Artificial Intelligence Strategy - Public Consultation

Overview

Have Your Say on the Draft AI Strategy for Northern Ireland 

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already changing how we live, work and access public services. Used well, it can help improve outcomes for citizens, support economic growth and make public services more efficient. Used poorly, it risks undermining trust or creating unintended harms. That is why Northern Ireland is developing a cross‑departmental AI strategy to set a clear, responsible and  joined‑up approach to how AI is adopted across the public sector. 

The draft AI Strategy for Northern Ireland sets out a proposed vision, principles and priority actions for the safe, ethical and effective use of AI. It has been developed collaboratively with input from a range of partners, and we are now seeking views to help shape the final version. 

We would welcome your views on the draft strategy.

Before completing the consultation, please read the consultation documents below and attached at 'related'.

To support inclusive engagement, the strategy will have accessible versions, with alternative formats available on request.

Why your views matter

Please take a few minutes to review the draft and share your views by responding to the consultation questions set out in the next pages.  Your feedback will help ensure the strategy is practical, inclusive and reflects the needs and concerns of citizens, public sector staff, businesses, academia, representative groups and the wider community. All responses will be analysed and will inform the final strategy. 

Thank you for taking the time to contribute your input will play an important role in shaping how AI is used responsibly for the benefit of everyone in Northern Ireland.
