Episode Synopsis

In this episode we're joined by Prof Paul Henman from the University of Queensland to discuss 'Automated decision-making in New South Wales: mapping and analysis of the use of ADM systems by State and Local governments', a research report produced in partnership by the ADM+S Centre and the New South Wales Ombudsman.
On 8 March 2024, ADM+S researchers Prof Kim Weatherall and Dr Jose-Miguel Bello y Villarino were invited to the first hearing of the NSW Artificial Intelligence Inquiry at Parliament House in Canberra, to present evidence from a recent research report on the use of automated decision-making (ADM) systems by state and local governments in NSW.
In a partnership with the New South Wales Ombudsman, this research was the first attempt to undertake a systematic mapping of ADM in any jurisdiction in Australia and one of the very few attempts across the world.
This research is expected to impact the future deployment of AI and automation.
