Ethics, Privacy, Bias, Transparency, and Standards Development: A High-Performance Computing Perspective
With the ever-evolving use of artificial intelligence, ethics-related matters (privacy, bias, transparency) are surfacing as the speed of innovation (especially in high-performance computing) continues to increase. There are many complex ethics-related matters to be considered, including the various standards development organizations that have initiated activities to further explore ethics-related matters.
This presentation will provide an overview of a standard development process that adheres to fair and equitable processes, ensure the highest quality outputs, and reinforces the market relevance of standards. Specific IEEE standards activities related to Ethically Aligned Design will also be discussed.
