Intelligence Agencies Release AI Ethics Principles

Then-Rep John Ratcliffe visited the DHS' National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center (NCCIC) in 2016, as part of a roll-out of automated cyber tools. ALBUQUERQUE -- Today, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released what the first take on an evolving set of principles for the ethical use of artificial intelligence. The six principles, ranging from privacy to transparency to cybersecurity, are described as Version 1.0, approved by DNI John Ratcliffe last month. The six principles are pitched as a guide for the nation's many intelligence especially, especially to help them work with the private companies that will build AI for the government. As such, they provide an explicit complement to the Pentagon's AI principles put forth by Defense Secretary Mark Esper back in February.
