- Title: Audit and Assurance of AI Algorithms: A framework to ensure ethical
algorithmic practices in Artificial Intelligence
- Authors: Ramya Akula and Ivan Garibay
- Abstract summary: U.S. lacks strict legislative prohibitions or specified protocols for measuring damages.
From autonomous vehicles and banking to medical care, housing, and legal decisions, there will soon be enormous amounts of algorithms.
Governments, businesses, and society would have an algorithm audit, which would have systematic verification that algorithms are lawful, ethical, and secure.

- Abstract: Algorithms are becoming more widely used in business, and businesses are
becoming increasingly concerned that their algorithms will cause significant
reputational or financial damage. We should emphasize that any of these damages
stem from situations in which the United States lacks strict legislative
prohibitions or specified protocols for measuring damages. As a result,
governments are enacting legislation and enforcing prohibitions, regulators are
fining businesses, and the judiciary is debating whether or not to make
artificially intelligent computer models as the decision-makers in the eyes of
the law. From autonomous vehicles and banking to medical care, housing, and
legal decisions, there will soon be enormous amounts of algorithms that make
decisions with limited human interference. Governments, businesses, and society
would have an algorithm audit, which would have systematic verification that
algorithms are lawful, ethical, and secure, similar to financial audits. A
modern market, auditing, and assurance of algorithms developed to
professionalize and industrialize AI, machine learning, and related algorithms.
Stakeholders of this emerging field include policymakers and regulators, along
with industry experts and entrepreneurs. In addition, we foresee audit
thresholds and frameworks providing valuable information to all who are
concerned with governance and standardization. This paper aims to review the
critical areas required for auditing and assurance and spark discussion in this
novel field of study and practice.

Governments and companies have started to leverage compute as a means to govern AI.
compute-based policies and technologies have the potential to assist in these areas, but there is significant variation in their readiness for implementation.
naive or poorly scoped approaches to compute governance carry significant risks in areas like privacy, economic impacts, and centralization of power.

The study focuses on the role of trust in AI as well as trust in law enforcement as potential factors that may lead to demands for regulation of AI technology.
We show that perceptions of discrimination lead to a demand for stronger regulation, while trust in AI and trust in law enforcement lead to opposite effects in terms of demand for a ban on RBI systems.

First, agencies must justify that it is appropriate to incorporate an algorithm into decision-making.
Second, these justifications must receive democratic public review and approval before the agency can adopt the algorithm.
