SUMMARY:LARIA Webinar 2024: AI: What is it? Why is it? Where is it?
DESCRIPTION:AI: What is it? Why is it? Where is it?\nThe world is awash with references to AI\, despite it not being a new practice. The recent advancements and easy accessibility of AI tools mean it’s the buzzword of the moment. But\, for many of us there are still many foundational questions when it comes to AI – what is it? why is it? And where is it? \nIn this session CACI’s AI and Data Science experts Sue MacLure\, Director of Data and AI Ethics\, and Edward Sewell\, Data Strategy Partner will share the journey we’ve been on at CACI as we adopted advanced AI techniques to enhance our data insights products\, as well as the use of generative AI in the interpretation and application of those data insight products – bringing to life the what\, why and where of AI at CACI. \nThey will also dive into the ethical and legislative challenges of adopting AI techniques to undertake data insight practices\, and how we’ve addressed them – sharing our key learnings with you\, so your data scientists can act with integrity\, always considering the ethical side of AI in their day-to-day work. \nFinally\, we’ll bring this all to life with some real-life use cases of how organisations are adopting these AI driven tools to improve consumer and resident experiences. \nWe’re confident you’ll walk away with:\n• Insights on how you can embrace the AI & Data Science opportunity for your organisation.\n• A deeper understanding of the key ethical and legislative considerations that all organisations seeking to adopt AI should be aware of and considering.\n• A clearer view of the variety and potential of ways in which data science and AI can drive tangible benefits to organisations across the Public and Commercial sectors both now and in the future.\nEd Sewell\, Partner – Data Strategy & Sue MacLure\, Director of Data\, CACI \nWebinars are available to Full Individual Members\, Corporate Members\, Full Corporate Members and Additional Contact members only. If you are not currently a member\, please sign up to membership to access the webinars. For more details on the benefits of membership\, please see here. \nSign in to register: \n\n\n\nLoading…

SUMMARY:LARIA Webinar 2024: Developing skills for AI: how and why
DESCRIPTION:Developing skills for AI: how and why\nThis session will provide delegates with inspiration for how their councils can take practical steps to develop data science skills to take advantage of the opportunities that AI presents. Attendees will also hear from two councils who will give examples of AI projects that showcase the benefits of investing in these skills. \nIn this session\, hear from Anna Gibson\, Senior Data Analyst at Hackney Council\, about her experience participating in a level 7 AI apprenticeship. Anna will explain how she has put the skills she developed to practical use in an exciting project that aimed to predict which council-managed properties and associated households were most at risk of damp and mould\, to help prioritise proactive interventions for the most vulnerable of residents. \nSimone Thomas\, Senior Manager for Strategic Data Systems at Cheshire West and Chester Council will describe the Data Hive skills development programme the council has implemented to build data culture and skills across the organisation. Simone will also tell us how her Data Science and Engineering team is developing a predictive modelling project that focuses on SEND pupils to help support sufficiency planning and budget forecasting. \nFinally\, Kate Cooper will outline the support available from the LGA to help councils develop data skills and build capacity around AI\, as well as the opportunities available to participate in networks to share learning and build relationships with other councils also working in this area\nAnna Gibson\, Senior Data Analyst\, Hackney Council\, Simone Thomas\, Senior Manager for Strategic Data Systems\, Cheshire West and Chester Council\nChaired by Kate Cooper\, Programme Manager – Data and Transparency programme\, Local Government Association \nWebinars are available to Full Individual Members\, Corporate Members\, Full Corporate Members and Additional Contact members only.
