01 · Context

Why AI readiness matters now

AI is already entering creative and cultural organisations through everyday tools, staff experimentation, suppliers, partners, audiences and creative workflows.

Advances in AI are increasing risks around cybersecurity, intellectual property, personal data and confidential information. At the same time, AI can support more efficient ways of operating, managing and communicating in the cultural sector.

Being AI ready means knowing:

01Where AI is already being used across your organisation.
02Which activities create data, IP, copyright, confidentiality or reputational risk.
03Which workflows could benefit from safe AI support.
04Which tools are approved for staff use.
05What information should never be entered into public AI tools.
06Who remains accountable for AI-assisted outputs.
07How benefits and risks will be measured.
