Reviews
In this important book, Albert Sanchez-Graells takes a cautionary view of public sector digitilization. We already know that reliance on AI in the administration of public services can go badly wrong; and we have reason to doubt that regulation by procurement contracting will fully protect the public interest. If we are to ensure a trustworthy digital transformation of the public sector, Professor Sanchez-Graells argues, we should consider establishing an independent regulatory body, an AI in the Public Sector Authority. * Roger Brownsword, KCL and Bournemouth University *
This book comes at a critical time of change. It provides a comprehensive analysis and critique of some long-established challenges, such as limited digital capabilities in public procurement organisations, and decades old 'e-Government' narratives still largely defining digitalisation efforts in public procurement. It is enjoyable, insightful and eye opening, and should be in policy-makers' prioritised reading list to help them tackle the myriad emergent risks arising from new technologies * Warren Smith, Partner at Curshaw Commercial and former Director for the Global Digital Marketplace Programme, Government Digital Service, UK * In this important book, Albert Sanchez-Graells takes a cautionary view of public sector digitilization.
