Stage 2 of the project ‘Exploring Children’s Rights and AI’ has recently reached its conclusion with the launch of a new report and film charting the process undertaken by children across Scotland to develop 12 Calls to Action. Find out exactly what children in Scotland think about AI and how it impacts their rights.

The adoption of AI tools in the workplace is only set to continue, which is why it’s important to better understand how this technology can impact the hiring process.

The Scottish Government is currently sponsoring a CivTech challenge on “how technology can help deliver a high-quality, scalable, model for public participation in decision-making”.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) may seem like a relatively new term and technology to many, but its roots date back several decades. In fact, the concept can be traced back to the early days of modern computing in the 1950s, with its mathematical and theoretical foundations going back even further. Learn all about its history in this blog.

The Living with AI Lounge is a fun, free event perfect for anyone looking to better understand artificial intelligence. The Living with AI Lounge will take place at Dynamic Earth on the 28th of March 2024.

In October 2023, the Scottish AI Alliance invited two community organisations that we work closely with to join us at the World Summit AI in Amsterdam. In our second of two guest blogs, Fash Fasoro recounts his experience at the summit.

In this podcast, we discuss the growing public awareness of AI, changing attitudes towards the use of AI in various sectors, and areas of public concern.

The Scottish AI Alliance has launch its new free online course, Living with AI, which is designed to get the people of Scotland engaged, interested and informed about what artificial intelligence (AI) is and how it is used in our daily lives.

In this episode of Turing's Triple Helix, we discuss how equality, artificial intelligence and the public sector intersect. Explore how people with protected characteristics may be impacted by AI systems, how public bodies are embedding equality and the barriers they face.

The Scottish AI Alliance are looking to connect and collaborate with communities, community-embedded organisations and civil society networks across Scotland as part of our engagement roadshow.

In this episode of Turing's Triple Helix, we discuss the implications of artificial intelligence for third sector organisations and young people.

Recently we were invited to speak with the young learners at West OS, the West Partnership Online School, as part of their West OS Wonders week celebrating Scottish Computing Science Week 2023. 

We are looking to work with individuals or organisations who are currently developing AI systems, policy around AI, or the practical application of AI, to help us explore how we can meaningfully involve the views of children in these processes. 

New research explores children’s current knowledge of artificial intelligence (AI), with the aim of involving them in its future development.
