RNZ can reveal AI is taking on diverse roles across New Zealand's public service.

Some academics want greater transparency in the government's use of AI .

50 public agencies surveyed in July last year and 37 were using at least one type of AI , from chatbots to transcription software to image analysis.

Health NZ clinicians used AI to work out the risk of a patient dying after surgery.

"There are many, many discussions, many conversations about AI happening in many parts of government," he said.

"If a government service or government department is using an AI system, then the public should know about it, and should know as much as possible about how it works, and how it's used".
