Recommendation
We welcome the Government’s announcement that it will publish a new AI Strategy later this year that will focus on economic growth through widespread use of digital technologies and on developing every adult’s digital skills. DWP should work closely with DCMS and BEIS on the development of the Strategy. It should ensure that the Strategy sets out how the Government will respond to the impact of AI on the labour market.

It does not, however, commit to DWP working closely with DCMS and BEIS on the development of the new AI Strategy or ensuring the strategy addresses the impact of AI on the labour market.
