About Scottish Ai Playbook

Scotland’s AI Strategy launched on 22 March 2021 with the vision for Scotland to become a world leader in the development and use of trustworthy, ethical and inclusive AI. By achieving this vision, AI will be enabled to contribute to making Scotland fairer, greener, more prosperous and outward looking.

The Strategy committed to the development of the Scottish AI Playbook, an open and practical guide to how we do AI in Scotland. It introduces our vision, our principles and the practices we will adopt to realise our vision. It will become a shared and living asset embodying Scotland’s AI Strategy ethos of openness, transparency and collaboration.

Through the Scottish AI Alliance, everyone will have opportunities to contribute, develop their AI skills and receive the support they need.
