• Title: Think About the Stakeholders First! Towards an Algorithmic Transparency Playbook for Regulatory Compliance
• Authors: Andrew Bell, Oded Nov, Julia Stoyanovich
• Abstract summary: Laws are being proposed and passed by governments around the world to regulate Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems implemented into the public and private sectors. Many of these regulations address the transparency of AI systems, and related citizen-aware issues like allowing individuals to have the right to an explanation about how an AI system makes a decision that impacts them. We propose a novel stakeholder-first approach that assists technologists in designing transparent, regulatory compliant systems.

• Abstract: Increasingly, laws are being proposed and passed by governments around the world to regulate Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems implemented into the public and private sectors. Many of these regulations address the transparency of AI systems, and related citizen-aware issues like allowing individuals to have the right to an explanation about how an AI system makes a decision that impacts them. Yet, almost all AI governance documents to date have a significant drawback: they have focused on what to do (or what not to do) with respect to making AI systems transparent, but have left the brunt of the work to technologists to figure out how to build transparent systems. We fill this gap by proposing a novel stakeholder-first approach that assists technologists in designing transparent, regulatory compliant systems. We also describe a real-world case-study that illustrates how this approach can be used in practice.

  The responsible AI (RAI) community has introduced numerous processes and artifacts to facilitate transparency and support the governance of AI systems. We conduct semi-structured interviews with 19 government, legal, and civil society stakeholders who inform policy and advocacy around responsible AI efforts. We organize these beliefs into four barriers that help explain how RAI artifacts may (inadvertently) reconfigure power relations across civil society, government, and industry.

  As AI systems become increasingly sophisticated, ensuring their transparency and explainability becomes crucial. We propose a design for user-centered compliant-by-design transparency in transparent systems. By providing a comprehensive understanding of the challenges associated with transparency in AI systems, we aim to facilitate the development of AI systems that are accountable, trustworthy, and aligned with societal values.

• Users are the North Star for AI Transparency [111.5679109784322]
  Despite widespread calls for transparent artificial intelligence systems, the term is too overburdened with disparate meanings to express precise policy aims or to orient concrete lines of research. Part of why this happens is that a clear ideal of AI transparency goes unsaid in this body of work. We explicitly name such a north star -- transparency that is user-centered, user-appropriate, and honest.

  This interdisciplinary position paper considers various concerns surrounding fairness and discrimination in AI, and discusses how AI regulations address them. We first look at AI and fairness through the lenses of law, (AI) industry, sociotechnology, and (moral) philosophy, and present various perspectives. We identify and propose the roles AI Regulation should take to make the endeavor of the AI Act a success in terms of AI fairness concerns.
