Evaluating a Methodology for Increasing AI Transparency: A Case Study

Understand

In reaction to growing concerns about the potential harms of artificial intelligence (AI), societies have begun to demand more transparency about how AI models and systems are created and used.

• To address these concerns, several efforts have proposed documentation templates containing questions to be answered by model developers.
• These templates provide a useful starting point, but no single template can cover the needs of diverse documentation consumers.
• It is possible in principle, however, to create a repeatable methodology to generate truly useful documentation.
