AI can transform our public services. But only with an active government willing to seize it. We’re harnessing AI to free up doctors’ time, speed up discharges, reduce waiting lists and get patients home quicker. This is our Plan for Change in action.

Speaking to frontline workers can help you to understand AI’s full potential and its possibilities. @ChelwestFT are trialling a new AI tool to speed up discharge papers and cut doctors’ admin. This is one of three new AI exemplars the PM is backing today.
