Session Outline

Success in AI systems requires more than technical rigour and performance. A strong human element behind the widespread adoption of innovative solutions is trust.

Key Takeaways

  • Public trust is a key factor in AI acceptance and its widespread adoption.

  • Based on a 2022 international study across 17 countries, there are 4 key drivers of trust and acceptance of AI systems (list and details in the presentation)
  • A practical way to build more trustworthy AI systems is through a multi-dimensional model (usually each narration of the responsible AI might focus only on a few)
