The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is inviting organisations to help develop a
framework for future auditing of artificial intelligence (AI).
A team from the ICO's Technology Policy and Innovation
Directorate will develop the framework. The framework is intended
to help regulators ensure AI applications are transparent, fair and
appropriately risk assessed.
As well as the invitation, the ICO has established a blog site where it will provide updates on its
thinking about development of the framework.
The ICO is seeking input from anyone involved with the use of
personal data and AI to join its consultation. The input will be
used to draft a formal consultation paper. This is expected to be
published by January 2020. This will then be followed by the final
AI auditing framework and associated guidance for companies. This
is expected to be published by spring 2020.
