Create an Ethics Committee to Keep Your AI Initiative in Check 7wData

Contemporary sensitivities to bias are growing, and this will only increase with the proliferation and ubiquity of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Organizations using AI are starting to recognize the role that strong, Organization-wide values must play in fostering responsible innovation. Many companies are now building Data & AI Ethics Committees, to not only maintain an Organization's values-based intentions, but to increase transparency into how they use AI. The idea is not simply to address human bias, statistical bias, and fairness, but also to increase organizational maturity concerning how AI-based products and services impact stakeholders, including civil societies. An ethics committee can provide an institutional feedback loop for how AIs are performing in the real world, giving valuable insights to designers, engineers, and executive teams.
