Ministry of Defence: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether significant Automated Decision-Making is taking place or planned within his Department, and if he will make a statement.
Answered by Luke Pollard
There are different interpretations of what constitutes Automated Decision-Making (ADM). The Ministry of Defence (MOD) does not hold a central database on all activities that might meet the definition of ADM within the Department
We have robust policies and guidance on ADM. As Artificial Intelligence (AI) and similar technologies become more prevalent within our business, we also have policies and guidance on AI which apply in addition to our data policies, and which stress the importance of human accountability as a key aspect of responsible use.
