A pathway towards responsible, ethical AI
This guide suggests a pathway towards responsible, ethical AI with a series of discussions helping to quickly assess ideas and their fit for the institution.
Discussions of artificial intelligence (AI) often jump straight to “ethics”. But there may be a better way. Asking simpler questions first may show that a proposal or product isn’t a good fit for the institution anyway. But if it is, the answers to those questions, and the process of obtaining them, should clarify the ethics, too.
Whether you are choosing, using, or benefiting from artificial intelligence, we hope this pathway will make you more confident in your relationship with it.
Using the pathway
The pathway has four main questions:
- Does this proposal fit our institution’s objectives?
- Does using AI fit our institution’s purpose and culture?
- Are we ready for it?
- Does using AI raise particular issues?
