Reliability & Safety
AI systems should be reliable, predictable, and safe. This means AI must: Be tested under different scenarios Handle errors gracefully Operate safely even in unexpected situations Developers must also anticipate risks and potential impacts.
Example: A self-driving car must react correctly in bad weather or when encountering unexpected obstacles.
Privacy & Security
AI systems must protect sensitive and personal data. This involves: Safeguarding user data Complying with privacy regulations Securing systems against cyberattacks Users should maintain control over their data.
Example: An AI app analyzing medical data must ensure patient information remains confidential.
Inclusiveness
AI should be accessible and useful for everyone. This means designing technologies that consider diverse users: People with disabilities Cultural differences Language differences Varied technology skills
Example: Voice recognition systems should work across different accents and speech patterns.
Fairness
AI systems can sometimes reflect or amplify biases in the data they’re trained on, which may lead to unintended discrimination.
Example: A recruitment AI tool should not favor one gender, ethnicity, or age group over another.
Transparency
Users should understand when and how AI is being used. Transparency includes: Explaining AI’s capabilities and limitations Informing users when they interact with AI Making AI decisions understandable
Example: A platform should clearly indicate when content or responses are AI-generated.
Accountability
Organizations and people creating or using AI must take responsibility for its impacts. This means: Implementing human oversight mechanisms Documenting AI decision-making Taking responsibility if problems occur AI does not replace human accountability.
Example: If an AI system makes a wrong banking decision, the organization is still accountable for the outcome.
