Frameworks and Tools on Responsible AI
Advancing the global movement on responsible, ethical and trustworthy AI
In designing the Global Index on Responsible AI, we conducted a review of existing tools and frameworks seeking to advance the ethical, responsible or trustworthy development and use of AI. These tools and frameworks constitute an important starting point for building the conceptual framework and measurement areas for the Global Index, together with the wide consultative process we conducted with stakeholders from around the world. Below you can explore the tools and frameworks we discovered.
