Public sector fraud, waste and error, a conversation with SAS



Gavin Freeguard from Think Digital Partners speaks with Caroline Payne from SAS about tackling fraud in the public sector and how data, AI, and technology can help public servants protect services and build trust.


Fraud causes real harm across our society, and provides a particular challenge for government. From procurement, to benefits, to organised crime, fraud costs the government billions of pounds each year.


AI could empower fraudsters, allowing them to adapt and launch attacks on a larger scale. But the better use of AI and data is also a vital line of defence.
