The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, for what purposes the Valuation Office Agency has used artificial intelligence in the last 12 months.

Answered by James Murray

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is at the heart of the Government’s plan to kickstart an era of economic growth, transform how we deliver public services, and boost living standards for working people across the country.

The VOA is conducting initial discovery work to identify where Generative AI tools might improve productivity and quality, including through trialling Microsoft’s Copilot tools.
