How can we build trustworthy AI? Open source provides lessons on how to protect our rights while innovating on AI.
FOSS was founded on principles protecting user rights (4 freedoms). With mechanisms like licenses, transparency & collaboration, open source transformed our world. AI is at a similar stage – ready to change the digital landscape, but limited by questions of ethics and user rights.
Algorithms influence our lives: they decide what videos we watch next, and whether someone is eligible for parole. Yet every day, we hear new stories on how AI discriminates and amplifies bias. How can we build AI that is worthy of our trust?
The free software movement was founded on principles protecting user rights (to use, modify, and distribute software). Through mechanisms like open source licenses, transparency, and collaboration, open source thrived and transformed our digital world. AI is at a similar crossroad – staged to change the digital landscape, but limited by questions of ethics and user rights.
We have an opportunity to take lessons from open source to protect our rights while innovating towards an AI revolution.
