Responsible AI
Protect the trust your business has worked to earn.
Using AI responsibly means paying attention to how it affects your customers, your employees, and the quality of your work. Clear expectations help your business pursue useful improvements with greater confidence.
Keep people accountable
Know who is responsible for approving AI uses and reviewing important outputs. People should have the authority to question a result, correct an error, or stop a process that is not working as intended.
Treat information with care
Understand what information a tool receives, who can access it, and whether that use is appropriate. Employees need clear instructions about customer, employee, and confidential business information.
Check the work
An answer that sounds convincing can still be incorrect. Match the level of review to the consequence of an error, especially when output could affect a person's money, opportunity, access, or wellbeing.
Be clear about the experience
Customers should understand when they are interacting with an automated system in situations where that knowledge matters. Make it easy to reach a person and to challenge or correct a problematic result.
Consider who benefits and who may be affected
Evaluate whether an AI use creates unfair barriers, adds burdens to employees, or makes a service harder to access. Include the people affected when testing changes.
Make responsibility part of daily work
These are practical starting principles. They help a business ask better questions and build better habits. Specific obligations depend on the use, industry, and circumstances.
