Abstract
As the field of artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve, its potential applications in various domains, including public policy development, have garnered significant interest. This research aims to investigate the role of AI in shaping public policies through a qualitative examination of secondary data and an extensive bibliographic review. By analyzing the existing literature, government reports, and relevant case studies, this study seeks to uncover the opportunities, challenges, and ethical considerations associated with leveraging AI in the formulation and implementation of public policies. This research will delve into the potential benefits of AI-driven policy analysis, such as enhanced decision-making processes, data-driven insights, and improved policy outcomes. Additionally, it will explore the risks and concerns surrounding AI’s influence on policy, including potential biases, privacy implications, and the need for transparency and accountability. The findings of this study will contribute to the ongoing discourse on the responsible and effective integration of AI in public policy development, fostering informed decision-making and promoting the ethical use of this transformative technology.
