Yes, Minister character is government's new AI assistant
The Government has introduced an AI assistant named Humphrey to enhance civil service efficiency and reduce consultant costs, as stated by the Government.
Peter Kyle, Science and Technology Secretary, will reveal additional digital tools, including apps for government documents, during a press conference.
The AI tools aim to modernize public services and improve data sharing, as mentioned by the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology.
The naming of the AI after a character known for being 'devious and controlling' has raised concerns about public perception, according to Tim Flagg from UKAI.
