Newsom Issues Statewide AI Ethics Guidelines to Encourage Responsible Adoption
-
California Gov. Newsom encouraged state agencies to use AI technology and released guidelines on how to implement it responsibly.
-
Agencies will have to make the business case for AI, test for bias/inaccuracies, monitor usage, and assign accountability.
-
The goal is to facilitate proper AI adoption rather than create barriers to usage.
-
Future reports will examine AI's impact on infrastructure security, vulnerable groups, and the state workforce.
-
The guidelines should be formally implemented by state agencies by the end of March 2024.
