Ashley began by pointing out the role of auditors in evaluating responsible AI, before diving into the different levels of evaluation. “We recognise that having multiple, different stakeholders with different types of perspectives both in academia, civil society but in industry itself, it’s really important to actually test out again what does ‘good’ look like and what is acceptable within different cultures as well.”īuilding on the role of context in driving responsible AI, the conversation shifted to look into the actors involved in promoting responsible AI practices and responsible AI certifications. In further describing the role of context in implementing responsible AI practices, Ashley said: Instead, a tool like an algorithmic impact assessment, which can be tailored to meet a specific context’s standards of practice, would be required for more effective contextual governance. Government guidelines and similar policy tools, she felt, could serve as important guardrails for responsible AI and act as the foundation for further governance measures but would not necessarily form strong governance frameworks on their own. She explained that given the diverse use cases of AI technology, it would be near impossible to have one system of rules that govern the industry as a whole.

To open the panel, Stefaan asked Ashley Casovan to speak about the role of context in different approaches to responsible AI practices.Īshley began by highlighting the critical role of context in determining the different approaches to implementing responsible AI practices in the field. They also explored the idea of auditing technology and the key role non-governmental organizations could play in this process going forward. Over the hour-long conversation, panelists unpacked the importance of responsible AI and the many challenges in implementing responsible AI practices across different fields and contexts.

This month, we were joined by the following distinguished faculty for an insightful discussion centered on diverse ethical AI practices from around the world: Unravelling them will be important for discerning potential future scenarios, such as the first wave in virgin territories still untouched by COVID-19 and for future waves elsewhere.The eighth installment of Global Perspectives on AI Ethics was held on Thursday, April 14. These unknowns and uncertainties require a deeper understanding of the variable trajectories of COVID-19. This paper tries to make sense of this variability-by exploring the important role that context plays in these different COVID-19 epidemics by comparing COVID-19 epidemics with other respiratory diseases, including other coronaviruses that circulate continuously and by highlighting the critical unknowns and uncertainties that remain. Learning from the variety of ways the COVID-19 epidemic is unfolding across the globe can potentially contribute to solving the COVID-19 puzzle. But important knowledge gaps remain (unknowns).

In only a few months, an enormous amount of scientific evidence on SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 has been uncovered (knowns). But this variety of global trajectories is little described, analysed or understood. Until now, the insights gained on COVID-19 have been largely dominated by the COVID-19 epidemics and the lockdowns in China, Europe and the USA. However, in different countries, the COVID-19 epidemic takes variable shapes and forms in how it affects communities.

Since its emergence in Wuhan, China, in late 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, has spread to nearly all countries of the world in only a few months. It is very exceptional that a new disease becomes a true pandemic.
