Governing AI: Political players between vision and regulation

To mitigate and address biases within AI systems, this paper analyses current practices in dataset compilation, use and AI system design before highlighting some state-of-the-art work being done in this domain. This is followed by recommendations to improve and build upon that work.

This article examines AI systems in public administration and raises the question of what guidelines already exist for artificial intelligence and what trends are emerging. The paper concludes with a call for interdisciplinary research and moderate regulation of technology to exploit its positive potential.

Even at the present stage of development, artificial intelligence technologies have the potential to fundamentally change public administration. The chances for this always lie in the design of the technology. These are the results of a short study on the use of AI in public administration, funded by the National E-Government Competence Centre in Germany.
