Welcome!
Here, you'll find a curated list of guidelines, articles, research papers, websites, and books aimed at helping organizations navigate the complexities of integrating ethical practices into their AI projects.
Frameworks and Guidelines:
World Economic Forum's Ethical AI Principles: A set of nine principles designed to guide businesses in identifying and mitigating ethical risks in AI applications.
Deloitte outlines an approach to AI ethics centered around four primary dimensions: technology, data, and security; risk management and compliance; people, skills, organizational models, and training; and public policy, legal, and regulatory frameworks. They emphasize the importance of viewing AI ethics as a comprehensive endeavor involving various aspects of an organization's operations and governance.
UNESCO has developed a global standard on AI ethics, the Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence, which was adopted by all 193 Member States. This comprehensive framework emphasizes the protection of human rights and dignity, and includes extensive policy action areas aimed at ensuring the ethical development and application of AI technologies across various domains, including data governance, environment, gender equality, education, and health.
Adobe shares insights from their AI Ethics program, which is built on principles of accountability, responsibility, and transparency. They highlight their methodical approach to embedding these principles into the lifecycle of AI-powered products and features. This includes the establishment of an AI Ethics Committee and the implementation of standardized processes, training, testing, and review processes overseen by an AI Ethics Review Board.
Google's approach to AI focuses on fairness and equity, covering everything from diversifying the workforce to designing algorithms that avoid bias. Their practices are aimed at ensuring AI systems are developed ethically, addressing potential biases and promoting equal outcomes.
Accenture provides a framework for ethical AI development, emphasizing bias reduction, transparency, and data privacy protection. Their guidelines support organizations in responsibly navigating AI's complexities, from governance to ethical culture building.
