The U.K.’s Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) this week released guidance to help organizations explain how artificial intelligence is used in decision making and how the technology uses personal data to form judgments.
The 122-page publication, called “Explaining decisions made with AI” and written in conjunction with The Alan Turing Institute, the U.K.’s national center for AI, hopes to ensure organizations can be transparent about how AI-generated decisions are made, as well as ensure clear accountability about who can be held responsible for them so that affected individuals can ask for an explanation.
