AI GOVERNANCE IN SIMPLE TERMS
Rules for Responsible AI
When you were a child, your school had rules and regulations to train and keep you in check.
Imagine AI governance like the rules and guidelines your school had to make sure everyone behaves well and stays safe. AI governance works just like how schools have rules to ensure students don't cheat on tests, respect each other, and stay out of trouble.
AI governance sets up rules and guidelines for how AI (artificial intelligence) should be created, used, and managed.
Here’s how it works:
Setting Rules - Just like school rules, AI governance establishes what is okay and what is not when it comes to using AI. For example, it might say that AI shouldn't be used to invade people's privacy or to spread false information.
Ensuring Fairness - It makes sure that AI is fair to everyone and doesn’t discriminate against certain groups of people. Think of it like making sure everyone gets a fair chance to join the soccer team, regardless of who they are.
Safety and Security - AI governance ensures that AI systems are safe and secure to use, similar to how schools make sure playgrounds are safe and classrooms are secure from any harm.
Accountability - It holds people responsible for what their AI systems do. Like how teachers are responsible for their classrooms, AI developers and users are held accountable for the actions of their AI.
Transparency - This means being clear and open about how AI systems work and how decisions are made, just like how teachers explain how your grades are calculated.
We think of AI Governance when we think about setting rules, ensuring fairness, keeping things safe, holding people accountable, and being transparent about AI. This is just like how schools manage students and activities to create a good learning environment.
Nice Piece. But by what/who's standards does artificial intelligence measure transparency, accountability and fairness? Who sets the bar? and when does it get too high or too low?
