UK: DRCF publishes article on fairness in AI
On April 15, 2024, the Digital Regulation Cooperation Forum (DRCF) published an article focusing on fairness in artificial intelligence (AI).
In particular, the DRCF examines the fairness principle, including what it means, how it relates to AI, and its consequences for different regulatory remits. The DRCF provides that, as outlined by the UK Government, fairness stands among the core principles guiding responsible AI development.
The DRCF highlights that fairness can arise in a variety of contexts, and what is defined as fair in AI differs depending on the situation. It includes avoidance of discrimination by reference to protected characteristics such as race and gender, and is significantly broader as it also includes other forms of fairness such as requirements to follow fair processes.
Looking ahead, the DRCF aims to join up, where possible, on cross-cutting issues to ensure protection against the implications of unfair practices in AI decision-making. Moreover, the DRCF will begin to shape its understanding of other AI principles, moving next to AI transparency and explainability.
