Responsible AI
Responsible AI is the practice of building and using AI in ways that are safe, fair, transparent and accountable, with people kept in control.
Also called trustworthy AI, human-centred AI
In more detail
In practice it means testing for bias, protecting privacy, documenting how a system works, keeping a human in the loop for important decisions and having a way to report problems.
Many companies publish responsible AI principles; what matters is whether they are applied to real products.
