PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(29 November 2024)

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, with reference to the Get Britain Working White Paper, published on 26 November 2024, what differences there are between DWP ASK and the A-cubed tool.

Asked by:
Helen Whately (Conservative)

A-cubed was a proof-of-concept project built to test the feasibility of utilising generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) to assist DWP Work Coaches in finding Universal Credit guidance.

After the successful completion of the proof-of-concept project, the Department created a tool to test the capability further, and to roll it out following completion of successful testing. DWP Ask is the tool that has been developed, incorporating lessons from A-cubed. The A-cubed prototype has been discontinued, which is standard practice for proof-of-concepts.
