AI Impact Assessment
AIIA
A comprehensive evaluation of an AI system's potential effects on individuals, communities and society, covering fairness, privacy, safety and human rights dimensions.
In Plain Language
A broader version of an algorithmic impact assessment; evaluating all the ways an AI could affect people, communities and society, including privacy, jobs, fairness and safety.
Why This Matters
A comprehensive AI impact assessment process protects your organisation from unforeseen consequences and demonstrates responsible AI practices to regulators, customers and investors. This should be embedded in your AI project lifecycle.
