About the Event

Curious what AI really means for social work and whether you can afford to ignore it? Join University of Birmingham's Professor Tarsem Singh Cooner and Dr Caroline Webb to explore the essentials of AI, from generative and predictive tools to real-world case studies and a live demonstration of how these technologies can lighten your admin load and support frontline practice. You'll also grapple with the ethical questions that matter most consent, privacy, transparency, bias and accountability, leaving with the confidence to use AI critically and responsibly in your work.
