- As part of the UK government's AI Exemplar Programme announcement on 17 August, the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) along with the Secretary of State, Peter Kyle, visited the Trust to learn more about the different ways they are implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI) to support patient care. A key part of the Exemplar Programme is the Government's commitment to roll out the use of AI in discharge summaries, something the Trust is currently piloting. [Source]
