Artificial Intelligence (AI) describes a family of technologies that can bring together computing power, scalability, networking, connected devices and interfaces, and data. AI systems can be programmed to perform specific tasks such as reasoning, planning, natural language processing, computer vision, audio processing, interaction, prediction and more. AI systems can operate with varying levels of autonomy.
The Australian Organ and Tissue Donation and Transplantation Authority (OTA) is committed to identifying ethical, responsible and meaningful use when considering the adoption of AI capabilities. We will be transparent as we explore, adopt and integrate AI technology to benefit staff and external stakeholders.
The OTA uses AI for workplace productivity, as outlined in the classification system for AI use on digital.gov.au. This is to reduce the time required for specific routine administrative tasks, such as document summaries, and does not interact with or impact the public. The effectiveness and governance are managed by the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing.
This use is compliant with relevant legislation, including the Privacy Act 1998, and each requirement under the Policy for the responsible use of AI in government. (Template language)
