Artificial Intelligence (AI) makes decisions about US every day. We SHOULD require that AI decisions are not biased or discriminatory.

AI and Big Data algorithms make everyday decisions about us.

We provide the data for those decisions, whether we know it or not. (1)

Big data can correlate your online activity, including web browsing, social media posts, store purchases, “likes”, and searches.

The activity can be traced to your computer, cell phone or tablet, ultimately offering the potential to profile you specifically. (2)

We need assurance that the decisions AI makes are fair to all people, regardless of color, creed, sex, or religion.
