What is Inclusive AI?

An artist’s illustration of artificial intelligence (AI). This image explores machine learning as a human-machine system, where AI has a symbiotic relationship with humans. It was created by Aurora Mititelu as part of the Visualising AI project launched by Google DeepMind.

At the Scottish AI Alliance when we say Inclusive AI what we mean is that we want AI that includes everyone from across the diverse cultures and communities that make up the population of Scotland. Inclusive AI must be mindful to not exclude any group, particularly our children and youth, and under-represented or disenfranchised people. Inclusive AI must be shaped by a diverse range of voices in all areas from strategy development, data gathering, algorithmic design, implementation and user impact. Inclusive AI respects our human right to live free from discrimination.
