Responsible AI is part of the areas of Artificial Intelligence, Digital Society and Sustainability and Environment 4.0. The term "Responsible AI" describes the responsible use of artificial intelligence. This means that AI systems are developed and used in such a way that they are fair, transparent and safe for everyone. It is particularly important that artificial intelligence supports people, makes decisions comprehensible and does not discriminate against anyone.
Imagine, for example, that a company uses AI to automatically sort applications. Responsible AI ensures that the system does not discriminate against any applicants - regardless of their gender or origin. It must also be clear why the AI suggests or rejects an application.
Responsible AI is therefore a principle that helps to comply with ethical and social rules when dealing with artificial intelligence. For companies and organisations, this means more trust from their customers, fewer risks and better decisions in the long term. In this way, artificial intelligence becomes a real help, not a danger.
