The framework

A framework for thinking about deploying AI

One of the things that is different about our approach at Blueprint is that we encourage people to think about and have conversations about the potential impact of what the organisation does before moving into practical application.

Drawing on our original Blueprint framework (see below) – we have created a framework specifically to help organisations think about how they deploy AI. The transformative power of the technology is becoming clear, but what is perhaps less clear is what we want it to achieve – our AI framework helps people to have conversations to consider how this technology can serve human flourishing and societal good.

The AI framework is accompanied by a booklet to help people in organisations navigate these conversations, including a draft workshop. 

The original Blueprint Framework, on which the AI framework draws, outlines how purpose should be defined and the behaviours needed to build character and achieve purpose.  It provides a link to the underlying provenance of Blueprint and is drawn from strong foundations of learning from society including philosophy, faith teachings and social and behavioural science. It sets out the 2 key ideas that underpin our thinking and approach and the behaviours that help deliver it.
