SafeGPT (AI)

AI platform for city council and organisation. Each their own environment. Deploy it for AI chat, automated reporting, analysis and text enhancement/translation. On the platform, we set up knowledge bases with verified information that can be queried.

Goal and impact

Improve operations. Secretaries no longer need to type out reports. Texts can be translated faster and with fewer errors using AI language model.


Relieve councillors of workload. They can quickly generate summaries and overviews. It also allows them to record their group meetings securely with AI automatically. They can also quickly check their proposals for imperfections and use it as a sparring partner.

Considerations

Writing out reports manually is very time-consuming. Employees then have to go over a tape and soon spend hours making a report. With the AI algorithm, this can be done in minutes.


Councillors previously used ChatGPT. As the Goes clerk's office, we want to offer a secure alternative to prevent data leaks.

Human intervention

A person checks reports against the full automatically generated transcript. If there is any doubt then the original audio recording is used. Translated texts can be checked by presenting them to the target audience.


We train all users on the importance of human in the loop. A person should always check the outcomes of AI.

Risk management

Data is automatically deleted after one year. Data will not be used to train or improve the model.

Legal basis

N/A. Business

Elaboration on impact assessments

DPIA has been prepared. The system processes data already processed by us as a municipality in the form of a recording or previously prepared document.

Data

In theory, any data that can be shared via audio or text.

Technical design

The AI algorithm helps to convert a sound recording to text as accurately as possible. Using another AI algorithm, this transcript can be converted into an accurate report. Yet other AI algorithms can translate texts or improve texts in terms of grammar or spelling.

  • Healthy Area Development Template for Digital Twin (GGO-DT): The province of Utrecht wants to take health and safety into account when making provincial environmental policy. It is then important to correctly include the effects on health and safety in algorithms and indicators for major tasks such as housing construction, climate adaptation, energy transition and mobility transition.
