Designing an Enhanced Enterprise Risk Management System to Mitigate Ethical Risks of Artificial Intelligence Applications
调查大型企业现有风险管理体系在应对AI伦理风险时的四大缺陷,提出增强型框架并经专家评估,为管理者改进风险管控提供参考。
The introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities in business applications provides substantial benefits but requires organizations to manage critical AI ethical risks. We survey a range of large organizations on their use of enterprise risk management (ERM) systems to predict and mitigate the ethical risks of AI. Four serious gaps in current ERM systems are identified: (1) AI ethical principles do not translate effectively to ethical practices; (2) Real-time monitoring of AI ethical risks is needed; (3) ERM systems emphasize economic, not ethical risks; and (4) When ethical risks are identified, no ready solutions are available for remedy. To address these gaps, we propose a proactive approach to manage ethical risks by extending the capabilities of current ERM systems. An enhanced ERM (eERM) system framework is designed and evaluated by subject matter expert focus groups. We conclude with observations and future research directions on the need for more aggressive proethical management oversight as organizations move to ubiquitous use of AI-driven business applications.
