Join us at this community meet-up where to learn from our colleagues about ethical issues in government data science and how we can approach them.

Data ethics should be central to the work of all data scientists, and for those of us in the public sector it is vital that we embed ethical practice into everything that we do. At this meet-up for the Cross-Government and Public Sector Data Science Community, we will find out how data ethics are at the heart of HMRC’s data science programme from their Deputy Head of Data Science, Anna Kwiatkowska. We will also hear from Matthew Gregory and Alessia Tosi of GDS (Cabinet Office) about the ethical considerations for using Large Language Models in government.

Data science for the public good begins with an appreciation of the ethical issues surrounding government data analysis, so whether you are a data science leader or a data-curious public servant, you will benefit from hearing how these issues are being addressed.
