A Maturity Model for Industries and Organizations of All Types to Adopt Responsible AI—Preliminary Results

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Competition in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies is at its fiercest, pushing companies to move fast and sometimes cut corners regarding the risks to human rights and other societal impacts. Without simple methodologies and widely accepted instruments is hard for an organization to adopt a safe pace on how to develop and deploy AI in a trustworthy way. This paper presents a Maturity Model for Responsible AI, inspired in the EU Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI and other principles and codes of conduct. The core component is a self-assessment tool that generates a roadmap for organizations to improve their approach to AI related development, enabling a positive effect in their business value. It includes requirements to achieve Trustworthy AI, and the methods and key practices that will enable the principles outlined. The result is a consistent and horizontal approach to all industries and functions, taking into consideration that a simple and generic Maturity Model, specific for Responsible AI, is still not available. The model presented in this paper is purposed to fill that gap. The model was pre-tested in two organizations, improved and pre-tested again. Results are presented in this paper. The next phase is to apply the model in several other organizations, and conduct interviews at different hierarchical levels and promote case study discussions. Its final version is planned to be published at the end of 2023.
