• Abstract: The rapid development and widespread application of artificial intelligence (AI) have sparked intense discussions on how to deploy responsible AI systems in a manner aligned with human values and ethical standards. Compared to fields like healthcare, energy, or finance, the application of AI in groundwater is relatively limited, and research on responsible AI is even more scarce. Taking the middle reaches of the Heihe River Basin as the study area, this paper proposes six Responsible AI principles: transparency, technical robustness, privacy governance, fairness, accountability, and sustainability. LSTM and Transformer time-series models are developed using multi-source hydrometeorological data, and validated via post-hoc interpretability, Monte Carlo simulation, and scenario analysis. The results show that Transformer outperforms LSTM in accuracy, robustness, and interpretability, demonstrating the operability and practical value of Responsible AI principles in groundwater prediction to support sustainable water management under climate change and human activities.
