RESPONSIBLE AI RECOGNIZED BY US GOVERNMENT - NEW REPORT PUBLISHED The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) Telecommunications and Information Administration, United States Department of Commerce, has published a report recognizing the importance of the independent AI assurance ecosystem. Findings* reveal commonality in the concerns raised: 🔹Inefficacy and inadequate functionality. 🔹Lowered information integrity. 🔹Safety and security concerns. 🔹Violation of human rights. 🔹Impacts on privacy. 🔹Potential negative impact to jobs and the economy. Three major themes emerged: 🔹Concern about intellectual property. Nearly half of all individual commenters (approximately 47%) expressed alarm that generative AI was ingesting as training material copyrighted works without the copyright holders’ consent, without their compensation, and/or without attribution. They also expressed worries that AI could supplant the jobs of creators and other workers. Some of these commenters supported new forms of regulation for AI that would require copyright holders to opt-in to AI system use of their works. 🔹 Concern that malicious actors would exploit AI for destructive purposes and develop their own systems for those ends. A related concern was that AI systems would not be subject to sufficient controls and would be used to harm individuals and communities, including through unlawfully discriminatory impacts, privacy violations, fraud, and a wide array of safety and security breaches. 🔹A final theme concerned the personnel building and deploying AI systems, and the personnel making AI policy. Individual commenters questioned the credibility of the responsible people and institutions and doubted whether they had sufficiently diverse experiences, backgrounds, and inclusive practices to foster appropriate decision-making. *extracts from the report reproduced. The recommendations support the growing AI assurance ecosystem from pre-compliance through to audit and certification; achieved through regulation, frameworks such as National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) AI RMF and OECD.AI, also through standards including ISO/IEC 42001 and ISO/IEC 27001 For information about Anekanta®AI, an independent and diverse organization, and its work, get in touch https://lnkd.in/eibBt9gr or visit the web site: www.anekanta.co.uk #responsibleAI #BSISOIEC42001 #EUAIAct #Anekanta #futureofwork #ethicalai #AI #euaiact #aigovernance #airiskmanagement #biometrics #facilitiesmanagement #smartcities #cni #aviation #artificialintelligence #retail #airegulation #securityindustry #riskintelligence #riskmanagement #oecd #aidefinition #facialrecognition #algorithmicbias #reputation #security #aimanagementsystem #grc #aiassurance #aiethics #bsi #costbenefit #risk #airisk #llm #genai #classicai https://lnkd.in/geZKujn5

In an era where #AI is rapidly transforming industry and society, collaboration between the public and private sectors has never been more critical. Trust and safety are ultimately on the line.     Cisco is a proud signatory and supporter of the EU AI Pact, outlining shared commitments around implementing appropriate governance, mapping organization’s high-risk use cases, and promoting AI literacy and safety for workers. Each of these measures plays an important role in fostering innovation while mitigating risk. #AIPact #AIGovernance https://lnkd.in/gUZAcuVg

The recent announcement of OpenAI's expansion into Singapore is a significant milestone in the region's AI landscape. The selection of Singapore to accelerate the development of OpenAI underscores the region's growing importance in AI development and adoption. This expansion raises important questions for the data management and protection space: How will the proliferation of AI development centres in the East impact data governance & privacy regulations across different jurisdictions? At Veritas, we're closely watching these developments in the AI space. As AI becomes increasingly prevalent, the need for robust, AI-driven data management solutions will only grow. We're committed to evolving our technologies to meet these emerging challenges, ensuring that organisations can harness the power of AI while maintaining the highest standards of data integrity and protection.

https://lnkd.in/dS8EUumy "The GSMA today launches the first industry-wide Responsible AI (RAI) Maturity Roadmap to provide telecoms operators with the tools and guidance to test and assess their responsible use of the technology.   Recognising that the overall opportunity derived from the expanded use of AI within the telecoms sector is estimated by McKinsey to be as high as $680 billion over the next 15-20 years, the GSMA is uniting the industry in using the technology ethically and responsibly – the first time a whole sector has committed to a common approach to AI. (...)This initiative has been championed by Axiata, Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telefónica and Telstra. Nineteen MNOs have already committed to using the roadmap as a way of tracking, maintaining and improving their responsible use of AI. " #ResponsibleAI #AI #Telecoms #BestPractices

European Parliament voted in favor of adopting the #EUAIAct, a huge step towards AI regulation and governance – both in Europe and around the world.      IBM has for long advocated governments to provide regulation of AI,l. Important to have clear guidance on risks based on end-use and strengthens transparency, trust, and accountability. This is important to protect people and enterprises from risks and enables society to reap the benefits of this innovative technology.#ai #eu #regulation #ibm #ibmconsulting Sachin Varma Vimal Dimpi krishnadas unni Roopesh Kumar A R Puneet Gill

I came across this interesting article via my subscription to the IAPP's AI Governance Dashboard. 🌍💡 The GSMA recently launched the Responsible AI Maturity Roadmap, a powerful tool to guide telecom operators in adopting ethical AI practices. With a potential $680 billion market opportunity, it’s crucial that AI is developed responsibly. This roadmap helps telecom companies evaluate their AI maturity and align with global standards on fairness, transparency, and accountability. For Jamaican businesses, especially in telecom, it's important to track global AI governance trends. As AI regulations tighten worldwide, staying ahead is key to unlocking AI's full potential while ensuring compliance and trust. #ResponsibleAI #EthicalAI

We have had a busy 2024 so far - the World Economic Forum in January, so many fab announcements at #CiscoLiveEMEA - and so much ties back to #AI. "AI has and will continue to be front-page news in the year to come, and that means data will also be in the spotlight. Data is the backbone and the differentiator for AI..." In his recent blog, Vijoy Pandey discusses how 2024 will be the year we’ll see a movement for responsible, ethical use of AI that begins with clear AI governance frameworks that respect human rights and values.
