This session is offered only for in-person attendance.

With its ongoing development and use AI systems continue to be at the forefront of our post-pandemic world. The Canadian government has joined this movement with its recent update on the Directive on Automated Decision-Making.

As administrative bodies shift their procedures to include automated services, there is a growing apprehension on how these systems can properly perform administrative duties while managing risks. With the implementation of new AI systems, it is crucial to conduct AI auditing assessments to ensure that privacy is not breached.

This workshop will dive into auditing assessments for AI system usages in administrative bodies. Points of discussion include:

• Exploring how administrative bodies are auditing their automated systems
• How often is an audit check conducted?
• Distinguishing internal versus external auditing and their pros and cons
• Identifying how AI audits are conducted within the administrative law sector
• Devising best practices for remediation when the audit reveals that something in the AI system went wrong
• Identify common challenges and effective solutions
• Understanding government reporting requirements for AI auditing
• Creating a checklist to ensure AI systems are competent and able to perform administrative functions
