FAccT (Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency in Machine Learning)

FAccT, which stands for Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency in Machine Learning, is a field focused on making AI systems better and more ethical. It aims to ensure these systems treat all people fairly, whose decisions can significantly impact lives. This involves understanding how algorithms work, making sure they don’t discriminate, and holding creators accountable for their use. Transparency means openly sharing how models make decisions, so users and developers can trust and improve them. Overall, FAccT seeks to develop AI that respects human rights and societal values while being understandable and responsible.
