eBook: AI for Social Value

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly integrated into our personal and professional lives, with Generative AI (GenAI) tools like ChatGPT showcasing both its vast potential and significant risks. This guide aims to introduce AI to professionals in social value, particularly within local authorities. It explores how AI can be leveraged for public good, addressing economic transformations, ethical challenges, and community impacts.

AI’s promise is not in replacing human judgement, but in elevating it—helping local governments make more informed, empathetic, and impactful choices. By anchoring AI initiatives in the principles of social value and equity, we have the opportunity to shape a future where technology serves as a true partner in creating resilient, connected, and thriving communities.
