ALGIM has been working on a policy councils can use or adapt as their own.  The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines for the use of any artificial intelligence language models (AILM) such as ChatGPT or other similar tools, by employees, contractors, temporary staff, or other third parties of a council. This policy is designed to ensure that the use of AI is ethical, lawful, and in compliance with all applicable legislation and council policies.

This policy aligns with our vision to bring people and technology together to digitally transform the local government sector but using safeguards. View the sample policy.
