Session: Applying FEAT in AI for social good
"Applying FEAT (Fairness, Ethics, Accountability and Transparency) in AI for building responsible AI products and for social good"- My tech talk is about why adopting an AI governance framework matters at an early intervention when we start to design, architect, and build AI models. From an AI governance standpoint, my topic will focus on why Explainable AI is critical for building responsible AI products. Thus, highlighting the four key principles to put into practice as a governance framework to build and deploy models that are trustworthy, fair, and explainable by design.
Key Takeaways
- • Helps businesses to trust & build AI products with confidence • Helps organizations effectively to oversee & assess their use of AI technology to develop responsible AI products • Benefits AI/ML practitioners, ML engineers, data scientists, & end-users
