Summary

Our Strategy marks a new chapter in Scotland’s relationship with artificial intelligence. It is the result of an extensive consultation and engagement programme involving academia, industry, the public sector and the people of Scotland who were generous with their time, contributing ideas, insights and opinion on AI. Their knowledge and expertise have helped to shape the Strategy and we’re grateful for the input of everyone who was part of this process.

We believe the significance of the Strategy lies in the fact that it looks beyond the technology itself to focus more closely on AI’s role in our society. Much of what we take for granted today happens because AI is working behind the scenes, driving change and technological innovation on an unprecedented scale. However, the use and adoption of AI should be on our terms if we are to build trust between the people of Scotland and AI.

The purpose of this Strategy is to help us realise our vision that Scotland will become a leader in the development and use of trustworthy, ethical and inclusive AI.
