Britt Spyrou is an experienced Australian public sector leader in complex policy, governance and organisational change. She specialises in how institutions make decisions under uncertainty, and how technologies such as AI can be used to strengthen human judgement in high‑accountability environments.
Britt currently works at Parliament House in Canberra, where she leads work on governance, decision capability and delivery systems. Her practice focuses on translating policy, risk and assurance expectations into workable governance approaches that support performance while maintaining public trust.
She holds a Master of Laws and a Master of Science in Behavioural Science, and is a board member of the ACT Chapter of the Change Management Institute and is a Research Project Lead for the Global Association of Applied Behavioural Scientists. She applies her research from the London School of Economics on human trust and co‑operation in the context of algorithmic decision‑making to real‑world governance design across government.
Responsible AI is often framed as organisational systems that set out policy, registers and accountability. But in practice, the critical decisions happen at the individual level. This session focuses on how to build judgement by walking through real use cases: deciding when AI is appropriate, understanding who is affected, and applying proportionate steps to manage risk. Because responsible AI needs system ownership plus moment-by-moment judgement.
