AI Leaders Prioritize Trust, Safety, and Human Oversight Amidst Growing Concerns
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) is growing rapidly across various sectors, from healthcare to education and cultural preservation. However, this rapid development raises concerns about bias, privacy, safety, human rights, and environmental impact.
In November 2021, UNESCO's 193 Member States adopted the first global standard on AI ethics, which includes principles such as transparency, fairness, environmental sustainability, and human oversight.
Several leading companies, including Salesforce, UL Solutions, and DNV, are prioritizing ethical and responsible AI use. They emphasize the importance of trust, safety, and human oversight in AI development and deployment.
Salesforce embeds responsible AI practices across design, development, testing, and governance. Its Office of Ethical and Humane Use brings together teams focused on responsible AI, ethical use policy, and accessibility.
