AI ETHICS & EQUITY

The development and use of AI tools raise important ethical and equitable considerations. Here is some guidance on understanding and addressing these considerations to ensure that AI technologies are developed and used responsibly.

Ensuring Fairness Fairness involves developing AI systems that treat all individuals and groups equally - avoiding discrimination based on race, gender, age, or other characteristics. Steps to ensure fairness include: ▪ Bias Detection and Mitigation - Implement techniques to identify and reduce biases in AI models. ▪ Inclusive Datasets - Use diverse and representative datasets to train AI systems. ▪ Fair Algorithms - Design algorithms that promote equitable outcomes. Promoting Transparency Transparency in AI involves making the inner workings and decision- making processes of AI tools clear to users and stakeholders. Key practices include: ▪ Explainable AI (XAI) - Develop models that provide clear explanations for their decisions. ▪ Documentation - Provide detailed documentation of AI systems, including their design, data, and decision processes. ▪ Open Access - Share AI research and models to facilitate scrutiny and improvement by the wider community.
