How to Create a Moral Compass and Testable Framework for AI Projects...
Solutions must be properly challenged by all stakeholders before embarking on Intelligent Automation projects. We have, previously unknown, responsibilities to ensure that proposed projects do not conflict with the tenets of moral practice for the deployment and use of Artificial Intelligence.
Green Lemon Company has compiled a preliminary list of questions that enlightened organisations must ask themselves...
Are we unanimous that the proposed AI solution will NOT;
- propagate, support or enable breach of human rights
- perform immoral, exploitative or illegal activities
- present or exacerbate risk to the private data of organisations and individuals
- endanger the stability and safety of vulnerable communities and individuals
- seek to influence minors outside the care of their parents or guardians
- expose users’ data to unwarranted disclosure and manipulation
- infringe the rights of users to privacy, safety and disclosure
- permit the use of data that is by its origin biased
- create bias by the use of heuristics
Are we unanimous that the proposed AI solution will;
- add value and overall be positive to the human condition
- promote and enable inclusion, equality and diversity
- have sufficient safeguards and human auditability
- be accessible to all without discrimination
And, lastly;
- has the human and environmental impact of the technology solution been properly evaluated?
- have all risks been identified, rated and mitigated in the design?
This is just the start of a long thought process and debate...we welcome any contribution to draft a robust framework for AI innovation and deployment
Please DM me if you wish to contribute to the debate...

This a really thought-provoking article Matt Thompsett. Makes me realise how little I have thought about the impact of AI and what good practice could /should look like
Very informative post. The Use of AI is on the rise for sure. I hope they do not become skynet
Appreciate the shout out here to looking at all risks. Further: I wonder if all risks are even knowable?
Fascinating subject Matt Thompsett
Diversity and being available to all is a really important part of AI and using it in the workplace. Nice article!
