Taking responsibility

Very few large organizations are unaware of their social responsibility and their operations' impact on the environment and society.

Most are taking positive actions to improve this impact. Organizations also increasingly recognize the need to take positive steps to mitigate environmental impacts. Not only have employees' well-being, carbon footprint reduction, and community contributions been prioritized, but businesses now understand that AI programs can significantly influence outcomes.

"Anything you do in AI must have responsibility at its core," says Sray Agarwal, a principal consultant at Fractal. Awareness of responsible AI is growing at the national and institutional levels. Fractal is working with governments worldwide to help shape policies and regulations. It is also working with individual businesses to ensure they consider the unintended consequences of their AI programs. You can read about responsible AI in this ai:sight issue cover story.

Results like these take great leadership. But how do successful people get even better?

He provides some thought-provoking insights and says: "Sometimes you need to eat the marshmallow"! Find out what he means in his exclusive interview.

There is plenty more in this issue too. I hope you enjoy the read.
