A plea for change management support towards an IA of trust in organizations
AI today faces a paradox: on the one hand, opportunities for useful innovations and concrete responses to the challenges facing our Society, on the other, major risks for our planet and for people. Discrimination, model hacking, psychosocial risks and digital pollution are all unacceptable aberrations and externalities. To meet these major challenges and anticipate future regulations, concrete responses are being developed around the world, particularly in Quebec. Axionable proposes to share an overview of current initiatives to accelerate the spread of trusted AI in organizations.
