In the pursuit of justice, transparency is non-negotiable. CCC’s response to the National Institute of Justice highlights the need for AI in legal proceedings to be transparent and expansive, not replace human judgment. Transparency ensures fairness, accountability, and trust in the justice system. The authors call for a society that fosters a justice system where dignity, respect, and trust prevail.

Yesterday Ivar Siccama, PhD and I presented a paper on our ethical bias check, and how this is a first step towards AI Fairness, at the AIMMES workshop on AI bias (see https://lnkd.in/ejmsJQq2 for our poster). The workshop was colocated with the Fairness Cluster Event of the AEQUITAS Project, BIAS Project, FINDHR and MAMMOth EU research projects. There were many other interesting talks as well on AI & human rights, intersectional fairness, bias and LLMs, fairness in credit scoring, fairness and explainable AI, with an interdisciplinairy audience from data science, law & ethics and social science backgrounds. And ofcourse the EU AI Act (almost) coming into effect was something that came up regularly. For more on the program see https://lnkd.in/eeCRvwXe. Thanks to Roberta Calegari and many of the other organizers and EU projects behind the workshop and preceding event. Looking forward to the next event!

Unpacking the New Executive Order on AI - Part 3: Advancing Equity and Civil Rights   This is the third post in a multi-part posting where I am unpacking each section of the recent Executive Order regarding Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence, for those unfamiliar it or for those who appreciate a summarized version.   Key takeaways from Section Three - Advancing Equity and Civil Rights   1. Guidance for Fair AI Use Establish guidelines to prevent AI from promoting discrimination by landlords, federal benefits programs, and federal contractors.   2. Tackling Algorithmic Discrimination Foster best practices to curb civil right violations stemming from algorithmic biases.   3. Fairness in Criminal Justice Formulate guidelines to ensure fair AI applications within the criminal justice system.   Next, I will be unpacking section 4 - Standing Up for Consumers, Patients, and Students.   #ArtificialIntelligence #AIEthics #CivilRights #JusticeSystem #AlgorithmicFairness #TechPolicy #ExecutiveOrder #missionimpossible #GenAI #Datamangement
