The use of AI-enabled technologies in various sectors is growing exponentially. These tools have the potential to increase performance, efficiency and growth, but also carry serious potential risks for negative impacts. Examples of issues related to privacy, fairness, bias and inclusion, accountability or liability and sustainability resulting from the use of AI in business are well documented and are coming into increasing attention in the media and by policymakers. Moreover, responsible use of AI is no longer just an important organization strategy, but will soon be a matter of compliance, as governments around the world start to implement legislation related to AI use.
But what are the ethical, human rights or sustainability related risks of employing AI? How do they manifest themselves and what frameworks or processes can be put in place to manage these risks? Organizations navigating new tools and technologies would benefit from strategic and well-informed thinking around these questions, using them as a starting point for employing AI, rather than an afterthought.
