1 00:00:00,050 --> 00:00:00,410 Lesson. 2 00:00:00,410 --> 00:00:01,970 Human centric AI systems. 3 00:00:01,970 --> 00:00:08,540 Human centric AI systems prioritize human values, ethics, and well-being in the development and deployment 4 00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:10,130 of artificial intelligence. 5 00:00:10,820 --> 00:00:16,640 Understanding the importance of human centric AI is crucial for AI governance professionals tasked with 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,260 ensuring that AI technologies are developed responsibly and are trustworthy. 7 00:00:22,010 --> 00:00:28,220 This lesson aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of human centric AI systems within the context 8 00:00:28,250 --> 00:00:31,550 of responsible AI principles and trustworthy AI. 9 00:00:31,580 --> 00:00:37,940 Integrating relevant statistics, examples, and scholarly insights to substantiate key points. 10 00:00:37,940 --> 00:00:44,480 Human centric AI emphasizes the need for AI systems to align with human values and ethics, ensuring 11 00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:50,360 that these systems not only perform tasks efficiently, but also respect human dignity, rights, and 12 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:51,590 societal norms. 13 00:00:52,130 --> 00:00:58,640 This approach contrasts starkly with purely utilitarian or efficiency driven AI models, which may overlook 14 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,310 the broader impact on individuals and communities. 15 00:01:01,340 --> 00:01:07,200 Research has shown that AI systems designed without considering human values can lead to unintended 16 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:13,740 consequences such as privacy infringements, biased decision making, and erosion of trust in technology. 17 00:01:15,090 --> 00:01:20,490 One of the fundamental aspects of human centric AI is the integration of ethical principles into the 18 00:01:20,490 --> 00:01:23,430 AI life cycle, from design to deployment. 19 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:29,700 Ethical AI frameworks often include principles such as fairness, accountability, transparency, and 20 00:01:29,700 --> 00:01:30,600 privacy. 21 00:01:31,020 --> 00:01:37,170 For instance, the EU's Ethics Guidelines for trustworthy AI outline seven key requirements human agency 22 00:01:37,170 --> 00:01:43,140 and oversight, technical robustness and safety, privacy and data governance, transparency, diversity, 23 00:01:43,170 --> 00:01:45,180 non-discrimination and fairness. 24 00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:48,930 Societal and environmental well-being and accountability. 25 00:01:49,500 --> 00:01:55,110 These guidelines serve as a blueprint for developing AI systems that respect human values and promote 26 00:01:55,110 --> 00:01:56,190 societal good. 27 00:01:57,210 --> 00:02:03,450 Fairness in AI involves ensuring that AI systems do not perpetuate or exacerbate existing biases, and 28 00:02:03,450 --> 00:02:04,530 inequalities. 29 00:02:04,890 --> 00:02:11,410 Studies have shown that AI algorithms can inherit biases present in training data, leading to discriminatory 30 00:02:11,410 --> 00:02:12,310 outcomes. 31 00:02:12,670 --> 00:02:18,910 For example, a widely cited case is the Compas algorithm used in the US criminal justice system, which 32 00:02:18,910 --> 00:02:24,340 was found to be biased against African American defendants, leading to higher false positive rates 33 00:02:24,340 --> 00:02:25,990 compared to white defendants. 34 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:32,350 Addressing fairness requires a multifaceted approach, including diverse data representation, bias 35 00:02:32,350 --> 00:02:37,720 detection and mitigation techniques, and continuous monitoring and evaluation of AI systems. 36 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:43,300 Transparency is another critical component of human centric AI. 37 00:02:43,690 --> 00:02:49,780 Transparency involves providing clear and understandable explanations of how AI systems make decisions, 38 00:02:49,780 --> 00:02:54,460 thereby enabling users to trust and effectively interact with these systems. 39 00:02:55,090 --> 00:03:00,700 The concept of explainable AI has gained prominence in recent years, aiming to make AI decision making 40 00:03:00,700 --> 00:03:04,510 processes more interpretable and understandable to humans. 41 00:03:05,170 --> 00:03:10,690 For instance, in the healthcare domain, explainable AI can help clinicians understand the reasoning 42 00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:14,410 behind AI generated diagnoses or treatment Recommendations. 43 00:03:14,410 --> 00:03:17,860 Fostering trust and facilitating better decision making. 44 00:03:19,150 --> 00:03:25,630 Accountability in AI involves establishing mechanisms to hold AI developers and deployers responsible 45 00:03:25,630 --> 00:03:27,490 for the outcomes of their systems. 46 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:34,090 This includes defining clear roles and responsibilities, implementing robust governance frameworks, 47 00:03:34,090 --> 00:03:37,660 and ensuring compliance with legal and ethical standards. 48 00:03:38,470 --> 00:03:43,900 The General Data Protection Regulation in the European Union, for example, includes provisions for 49 00:03:43,900 --> 00:03:49,540 algorithmic accountability, granting individuals the right to challenge and seek explanations for automated 50 00:03:49,540 --> 00:03:52,030 decisions that significantly affect them. 51 00:03:52,750 --> 00:03:58,390 Such regulatory measures are essential for safeguarding individuals rights and promoting responsible 52 00:03:58,420 --> 00:03:59,410 AI use. 53 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:06,550 Privacy is a fundamental human right that must be protected in the development and deployment of AI 54 00:04:06,580 --> 00:04:07,360 systems. 55 00:04:07,900 --> 00:04:13,270 AI technologies often rely on vast amounts of personal data, raising concerns about data security and 56 00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:14,590 privacy breaches. 57 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,180 Ensuring robust data protection measures such as encryption, anonymization and secure data storage 58 00:04:21,180 --> 00:04:25,470 is crucial for maintaining user trust and complying with legal requirements. 59 00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:32,220 Moreover, privacy preserving AI techniques such as federated learning and differential privacy can 60 00:04:32,220 --> 00:04:36,930 enable the development of AI models without compromising individual privacy. 61 00:04:38,340 --> 00:04:43,860 Human centric AI also emphasizes the importance of societal and environmental well-being. 62 00:04:44,490 --> 00:04:49,800 AI systems should be designed to contribute positively to society and the environment, addressing global 63 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,370 challenges such as climate change, health care, and education. 64 00:04:53,970 --> 00:05:00,360 For example, I can be leveraged to optimize energy consumption, reduce carbon emissions, and improve 65 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,200 resource management, contributing to environmental sustainability. 66 00:05:04,890 --> 00:05:11,160 In healthcare, AI powered diagnostic tools and personalized treatment plans can enhance patient outcomes 67 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,420 and access to medical services, particularly in underserved regions. 68 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,290 Trust is a cornerstone of human centric AI. 69 00:05:19,650 --> 00:05:24,950 Building and maintaining trust in AI systems requires addressing the aforementioned principles fairness, 70 00:05:24,980 --> 00:05:31,580 transparency, accountability and privacy, while also fostering public engagement and education. 71 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:37,190 Public understanding and acceptance of AI technologies are crucial for their successful integration 72 00:05:37,190 --> 00:05:38,270 into society. 73 00:05:38,450 --> 00:05:44,510 Engaging with diverse stakeholders, including policymakers, industry leaders, academics, and civil 74 00:05:44,510 --> 00:05:49,850 society can help ensure that AI systems reflect a broad range of perspectives and values. 75 00:05:51,260 --> 00:05:57,410 In conclusion, human centric AI systems are essential for aligning AI development with human values, 76 00:05:57,410 --> 00:06:04,400 ethics, and societal well-being by incorporating principles such as fairness, transparency, accountability, 77 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:10,190 and privacy into the AI life cycle, we can develop AI technologies that are not only effective, but 78 00:06:10,190 --> 00:06:12,830 also trustworthy and beneficial to society. 79 00:06:13,610 --> 00:06:18,650 As AI governance professionals, it is our responsibility to advocate for and implement human centric 80 00:06:18,650 --> 00:06:24,920 AI practices while ensuring that AI systems are developed and deployed in a manner that respects human 81 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,380 dignity and promotes the common good.
