Courses at the same or a lower level don't give credit against each other. A Focus course or above always costs at least £15. Read the full terms

Overview and Outcomes.

Overview

Public trust is the licence to use AI at all. This module explores how AI can help analyse consultation responses but cannot weigh them, five guard rails for AI in engagement, and the government's Consult tool. Through Moffatt v Air Canada it shows that if your AI says it, you said it. It also covers digital exclusion, chatbot essentials, planning for a deepfake of a leader, and Onora O'Neill's idea of well-placed trust. This capstone puts the programme to work through two illustrative, invented cases: AI note-taking in social work at Cyngor Bro Dyffryn, read through seven lenses, and a repairs chatbot at Cartrefi Glas that failed tenants reporting damp and mould. It draws out the principles that the tool was the easy part and that you automate the routine but never the urgent, then offers a maturity matrix, a ninety-day plan and one loop for leading AI well.

What you'll develop

In this Bitesize, you will develop the ability to:

  1. Explain why AI can help read consultation responses but must not weigh them, and apply five guard rails for engagement.
  2. Apply the principle that an organisation owns what its AI tells the public, including the essentials for chatbots.
  3. Identify who digital-only approaches leave out and plan a response to a deepfake of a leader.
  4. Apply seven lenses to an AI proposal: strategy, data, legal, governance, workforce, literacy and public trust.
  5. Distinguish routine tasks suited to automation from urgent ones that must reach a person, and explain why complaints are data.
