Generative AI is all around us and here to stay, so it is important for BASW members to engage in and lead conversations about when and how, as Social Workers, we should be using AI in our practice.
Building on both BASW’s AI guidance and BASW England’s 80:20 Campaign Top Tips resource, this practice forum will give you the opportunity to critically reflect on and join a discussion on the opportunities and risks of AI, with a particular focus on the role of AI in relationship based social work practice.
