Use cases for AI in parliaments

The Use cases have been developed by parliaments for their own use and are shared here to help others to plan, develop and measure the implementation of systems that use AI. A “use case” describes how a system should work. It is used to plan, develop and measure implementation. Use cases translate the abstract potential of AI into practical applications for parliamentary operations. 

The Use cases cover how to use AI tools to support bill drafting and amendments, to improve the production of verbatim reports or subtitles for video content, and to support public engagement, particularly the analysis of large volumes of public submissions, as well as cybersecurity AI tools that support the development of secure parliamentary systems.

The Use cases are published by the IPU in partnership with the Parliamentary Data Science Hub in IPU’s Centre for Innovation in Parliament. They follow the adoption of a landmark resolution on The impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on democracy, human rights and the rule of law by IPU member parliaments at the 149th IPU Assembly in Geneva in October 2024.
