Department for Energy Security and Net Zero: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, for what purposes (a) Ministers and (b) officials in his Department have used AI in the last 12 months.
Answered by Michael Shanks
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has huge potential to support the Government’s mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower and accelerate to net zero. Over the last 12 months DESNZ officials have, with robust safeguards and governance, used AI tools to:
- Speed up office-based tasks including basic drafting, summarising, and searching internal and external information sources;
- Analyse internal information sets;
- Analyse external information, such as job listings to identify trends in green jobs.
Ministers have been supported by officials using AI tools, in line with the uses above.
