À propos de la conférence

Automated decision-making has the potential to streamline government decision-making and to make it more efficient. At the same time, it has the potential to significantly affect individuals, raising concerns about bias, discrimination, error, and lack of transparency. Although early governance tools have attempted to tackle some of these challenges, generative AI technologies introduce a range of new issues which may prove much more difficult to govern.

This presentation explores the evolving face of automated decision-making and its governance challenges.
