Responsible AI

Responsible AI is the practice of developing and deploying artificial intelligence systems that adhere to principles such as ethics, fairness, reproducibility and data privacy. Data ethics refers to the moral obligations and responsibilities of data collectors, processors and users. Fairness means ensuring that AI systems do not discriminate or harm any group of people based on their characteristics or preferences. Reproducibility means ensuring that AI systems can be verified, validated and replicated by independent parties. Data privacy means ensuring that AI systems respect the rights and preferences of data subjects and protect their personal information from unauthorized access or misuse. Transparency or ’explainability’ refers to making the decisions and actions of AI systems transparent and understandable to humans, especially non-experts such as clinicians, patients and the wider public.
