AI Ethics and Responsible AI

AI ethics and responsible AI ask how society should manage the risks of powerful automated systems while still allowing them to serve the public. The topic covers accountability, transparency, fairness, and human oversight. Governments, companies, researchers, and standards bodies all shape it.

People usually ask who is responsible when an automated system causes harm, how much the public is owed in the way of explanation, and where the line falls between useful innovation and unacceptable harm. They also ask how principles adopted by agencies, including the military, are put into practice.
