91ÌÒÉ«

91ÌÒÉ«’s approach to AI is active, critical and strategic. This includes balancing carefully governed use of commercial tools with investment in institutional capability, shared infrastructure and open approaches, informed by expertise across the university.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a core theme of our Digital Plan. Through staff training, cross‑university working groups and communities such as the , we are building confidence and critical judgement so AI is used where it clearly adds value.  

We are also alert to risks around dependency, cost, sustainability and supplier behaviour. These are managed through diversification, clear governance and ongoing review.

Overall, our aim is informed engagement: using AI to enhance work and advance science for humanity, while challenging assumptions and being clear about when its use is not appropriate. 

Using AI 

AI can be a useful, everyday tool for our professional services teams, students, academics and researchers. When used well, it can help make work quicker and easier, support decision-making, and free up time to focus on the parts of the job that you really enjoy and need your insight. 

AI can help with things like drafting and summarising documents, analysing data, answering common questions, and spotting patterns or potential issues. Used responsibly and securely, it can boost productivity, improve consistency, and cut down on repetitive tasks, helping you get results while still using your professional judgement. 

This webpage outlines 91ÌÒÉ«-approved tools giving you the confidence to use AI responsibly and in a safe contained environment.
