Social Work Week 2026: It's all about AI

In the latest episode of Social Work Radio, Vince and Cara take on one of the biggest issues facing the profession right now: the growing role of AI in social work. From algorithmic risk scores and embedded decision-support tools to bias, transparency, consent, and the future of professional judgement, this episode explores what happens when technology starts shaping practice faster than many practitioners realise.

It is a sharp, timely conversation about safeguarding the relational core of social work in an increasingly automated world, and why Social Work Week 2026 should be a moment for the profession to lead the debate rather than simply react to it.
