AuroraAI is a national artificial intelligence programme to prepare Finland for a human-centric and ethically sustainable society in the age of artificial intelligence. It provides a decentralised open network and data-based model for smart public services and applications. AuroraAI is speeding up the establishment of an ecosystem serving the needs of citizens, public administration and industry. AuroraAI is expected to strengthen Finlan’s ability to solve difficult issues in their society relating, for example, to the national economy’s sustainability gap, the aging population or the social exclusion of young people. This is going to be made possible by creating snapshots across administrative boundaries about people’s true needs and the state of their well-being. Creating such a snapshot will require a new kind of utilisation of information, data analytics and other applications of artificial intelligence. At the same time, services will be allocated efficiently from the point of view of central government finances, and the waste and underutilisation of resources will be removed. There was a preliminary study on the Aurora national artificial intelligence programme during 2018-2019. It was as extensive, open networking between the public, private and third sectors that identified the kinds of changes activities based on human-centricity and life event-thinking signify, for example, for the provision of services and for management. This preliminary study contributed to the drafting of the implementation plan, which was discussed in close consultation with the publics, in an attempt to drive Finnish public administration towards an era of AI in a safe, ethically sustainable way that places humans at the centre. Currently the implementation of Aurora AI is under progress until 2023. Further, communications and interactions with the publics are still open through the Slack service, Twitter and LinkedIn under the hashtag #AuroraAI.
