Study Notes
Responsible AI
- Responsible AI is an approach to developing and deploying AI systems in a safe, trustworthy, and ethical manner.
- Key principles: fairness, privacy, robustness, inclusiveness, transparency, non-maleficence, and accountability.
Fairness
- Ensure AI outputs are fair and free of bias.
- Evaluate data for historical bias, skewed representation of user groups, and proxy features.
- Achieve fairness through:
- Diverse and representative data.
- Bias-aware algorithms.
- Bias mitigation techniques.
- Diverse development teams.
- Ethical AI review boards.
Transparency
- Users must be able to understand how AI works, evaluate its functionality, and comprehend its strengths and limitations.
- Determine whether the model is appropriate for a given use case.
Explainability
- Beyond model transparency, explaining AI decisions goes beyond disclosing model workings.
- Consider the context of users and provide explanations that help them understand AI behavior.
- Sub-principles:
- Prediction accuracy: running simulations to compare AI output to training data results.
- Traceability: limiting decision-making scope and setting narrower rules and features.
- Decision understanding: practitioners understanding how and why AI derives conclusions.
Accountability
- Monitor AI models as data distribution changes over time.
- Monitoring should:
- Detect deviations in explainability and raise alarms for data/accuracy deviations.
- Raise alarms for privacy deviations and indicate if privacy parameters need refreshing.
- Check fairness metrics and measures.
Privacy
- A crucial facet of responsible AI.
- Secure data and models during training.
- Models vulnerable to attacks cannot perform well in responsible AI metrics.
Regulatory Sandboxes
- Allow companies to test their algorithms safely without official regulatory audits.
- Verify if their work is fair and inclusive.
Robustness
- Handle exceptional conditions (abnormalities in input or malicious attacks) without causing harm.
- Protect against intentional and unintentional interference by shielding against vulnerabilities.
Non-maleficence
- AI systems should avoid harming individuals, society, or the environment.
Promoting Responsible AI Practices
- Define responsible AI principles.
- Collaborate across all disciplines.
- Educate and raise awareness.
- Integrate ethics across the development lifecycle.
- Protect user privacy.
- Facilitate human oversight.
- Encourage transparency.
Responsible AI
- Responsible AI is a method for creating and using AI systems safely, ethically, and reliably.
- It is a set of principles that guide the design, development, deployment, and use of AI.
- Responsible AI aims to ensure AI systems are fair, unbiased, and protect user privacy while promoting transparency and accountability.
- Responsible AI principles include: fairness, privacy, robustness, inclusiveness, transparency, non-maleficence, and accountability.
Fairness
- AI systems should produce fair and unbiased outputs.
- Data should be evaluated for historical bias, skewed representation of user groups, and proxy features.
- Achieving fairness requires diverse and representative data, bias-aware algorithms, bias mitigation techniques, diverse development teams, and ethical AI review boards.
Transparency
- Users should understand how AI systems work, their capabilities, and limitations.
- Transparency involves explaining how the model was created and determining its suitability for specific use cases.
Explainability
- Addresses the "black box" problem in AI by providing explanations for model decisions.
- Going beyond model transparency, it considers the user's context and provides explanations that help them understand the model's behavior.
- Sub-principles include: prediction accuracy, traceability, and decision understanding.
Accountability
- Monitoring is crucial to ensure responsible AI practices.
- Monitoring includes: detecting deviations in explainability, privacy, and fairness.
- It involves raising alarms when data/accuracy deviates, privacy parameters need refreshing, and fairness metrics need adjustment.
