Congratulations to Alex Jenkins, Chair and Founder of the Curtin AI in Research Group and Director of the WA Data Science Innovation Hub, on his appointment to Western Australia’s new Artificial Intelligence (AI) Advisory Board.

Minister for Innovation and the Digital Economy Hon. Stephen Dawson announced the creation of the new AI Advisory Board by the Cook Government, which will ensure appropriate checks and balances are in place, as AI is increasingly trialled and adopted across Government.

As part of the expert advisory board Mr Jenkins will provide strategic advice to the State Government on AI projects, as well as the design, development and use of AI or data-driven tools in the public sector.
