The rapid development of AI and machine learning presents a huge opportunity to streamline systems, make businesses more profitable and improve services across industries. Yet questions are frequently raised about how algorithms can make decisions that are reliant on context or empathy and how accountability can be enforced in a world of automated decision making.
