Learn models and principles to ensure organizations are creating, using, and deploying AI that coworkers, customers, and society can trust.
Overview
Our lives are directed, enriched, influenced, and sometimes harmed by AI, in both obvious and not-so-obvious ways. Although many AI regulations have been implemented in the last few years and more regulation is coming, organizations cannot wait until they are compelled by external forces to develop responsible AI practices. For the sake of your business, customers, and society, everyone has a responsibility to ensure that the technology they help build, sell or deploy is fair, transparent and ethical.
In this tutorial, we will walk participants through the steps of creating a responsible AI practice using a combination of lecture, exercises, and case studies. You’ll learn:
- The four stages of the Ethical AI Maturity model and how to advance along this continuum
- What is required to create a responsible AI practice; and
- Concrete steps to improve or deepen your existing processes or practices
