Ministries using AI need to focus on creating intelligent and autonomous systems to achieve real transformation rather than just accelerated processes. Forming partnerships with single vendors can lead to dangerous dependencies, so engaging with specialist AI companies that possess sector-specific knowledge is recommended to mitigate vendor lock-in risks. Additionally, internal development of AI expertise within government is essential, moving away from merely outsourcing responsibilities to external partners.
"If ministries use AI merely to accelerate current processes, they'll create sophisticated digital assistants rather than intelligent, autonomous systems and workers that can deliver genuine transformation."
"Single vendor partnerships create dangerous dependencies. A more sensible approach would involve specialist AI companies with deep sector knowledge, such as healthcare AI firms for the NHS or defense technology specialists for security services."
"To fulfil its ambitions, the government will need to develop inhouse AI knowledge and not simply outsource all the thinking to external partners."
