🌐IPIE Publishes First Report by its Scientific Panel on Global Standards for AI Audits🌐 In "Global Approaches to Auditing Artificial Intelligence: A Literature Review," the IPIE's Scientific Panel on Global Standards for AI Audits explains what artificial intelligence (AI) system audits are and why they are important to ‘test whether they engender the outcomes they are expected to and/or whether they have significant – possibly adverse – societal and technological impacts.’ The report also identifies three key takeaways for global policymakers as they develop and implement audit systems for the rapidly changing world of AI. Wendy Hui Kyong Chun, Scientific Panel Chair, notes that “AI audits are an important means of assessing the global impacts of AI systems, but the audit ecosystem is extremely diverse and follows several different guidelines, frameworks, rules, and standards. This literature review, which was shaped by leading experts in the field, will help us parse these approaches and understand what really matters to global standards for AI audits.” Check out the full report here: https://lnkd.in/e-Zhk4ru Later this year, the Scientific Panel on Global Standards for AI Audits will publish a set of global protocols for AI audits for discussion by global policymakers, as well as a separate report on the provenance of data used by AI and the impact of this provenance on system bias. Stay tuned!

🚀Great news on UN Global Principles for Information Integrity🌐 Colleagues from across the International Panel on the Information Environment (#IPIE) are excited to welcome the new #UN Global Principles for Information Integrity (https://lnkd.in/gV2D8xm9). These principles are a timely intervention and mark a significant step toward a transparent, reliable, and secure information environment we must all work towards together. At the IPIE, we are committed to fostering an environment where information thrives free from distortion. We see this framework as a critical foundation for global collaboration. By adhering to these principles, stakeholders across sectors can collectively combat false information, protect public trust, and foster an informed citizenry. The UN Global Principles for Information Integrity advocate for ethical information practices, enhanced media literacy, and robust regulatory frameworks, aligning seamlessly with IPIE’s mission. These principles will not only mitigate the effects of information pollution but also empower individuals and organizations to navigate the information landscape with confidence and discernment. How the IPIE will contribute in the next 12 months: ▪ Scientific Panel on Global Standards for AI Auditing: Working towards explicit expectations for independent audits; ▪ Panel on Information Integrity about Climate Science: Identifying how social media can support public understanding of critical issues affecting lives and livelihoods; ▪ Indexing Panel: Establishing and regularly updating metrics to inform and motivate better design, and regulation for responsible technology innovations. In particular, the Indexing Panel will allow us to measure where we are on the path towards a sustainable and healthy digital economy. Just as metrics of temperature, CO2 concentration, and sea level rises help us understand climate change, we are dedicated to indexing the global information environment. We look forward to contributing our work to the UNGA conversations in September, including the Pact for the Future and the Global Digital Compact. IPIE’s scientific outputs aim to reach platforms like the Internet Governance Forum, G7, G20, OECD, AU, APEC, EU, ECLAC, and more. Together, we can build a more resilient and trustworthy information environment. The UN Global Principles for Information Integrity and the UN Pact for the Future and its Global Digital Compact help define our goals. #InformationIntegrity #UNGlobalPrinciples #InformationSecurity #GlobalCollaboration #ArtificialIntelligence #SummitfortheFuture #OurCommonAgenda #PactfortheFuture #UNGA #G7 #G20 United Nations Internet Governance Forum Secretariat OECD - OCDE, African Union APEC - Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation European Commission ECLAC

Last week, the IPIE Board, Executive Committee, and four scientific panels gathered at the Swiss Re Centre for Global Dialogue in Zurich, Switzerland. In the IPIE’s largest meeting to date, across three days attendees reviewed the organization's substantial progress since its launch at the 2023 Nobel Prize Summit and mapped the organization’s next phase of work. The IPIE’s upcoming priorities include publishing reports in support of establishing a global standard for AI audits and launching new panels to study information integrity regarding climate change, AI and peacebuilding, and child safety online. We are incredibly excited to be at this point. The IPIE was chartered and built by researchers studying the world’s most pressing technological challenges. Last week represents how far the IPIE has come in our work to become the world’s trusted science advisor on technology issues and how we plan to continue this work in pursuit of building a healthier global information environment.

A year ago this month, the IPIE officially launched at the 2023 Nobel Prize Summit, painting a vision for a healthier global information environment that ensured scientific- and evidence-based understanding of the world’s critical issues, from climate change to online safety. We have come a long way in our work to become the world’s trusted science advisor on technology issues and to foster a more informed, equitable, and resilient policy community through collaboration, research, and evidence. In the last year, we have launched multiple new scientific panels, published first-of-its-kind research, and continued to grow our membership of scientific experts. The upcoming year is set to be another monumental period for the IPIE, with a leadership meeting in Zurich and new reports to be published in the coming weeks.

📰🔊"Fighting disinformation gets harder, just when it matters most"📰🔊 Check out this fascinating article from The Economist on the challenges of combating disinformation featuring IPIE. The piece includes our research on the most effective countermeasures to disinformation and quotes IPIE's President Phil Howard on the need for tech companies to open up: "A big obstacle for researchers is the lack of access to data. The best data is not in public hands, but is “sitting in private networks in Silicon Valley,” Dr Howard likens the situation to the early days of climate science, 'lots of people are trying to tackle the same problem from different perspectives, but it is difficult to see the whole picture'....It took decades, but the IPCC now provides governments with solid data on which to base policy decisions. The IPIE aims to do the same for the global information environment.
