IDC® Launches Artificial and Machine Bias Prevention – Leader™ Certification

New Program Equips Leaders to Develop Ethical and Trustworthy AI

BROWNSBURG, INDIANA, UNITED STATES, June 26, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The 2024 Edelman Trust Barometer revealed a significant gap in trust: while 76% of people trust businesses in the technology sector, only 50% trust AI. This highlights the growing concern about bias in AI, which can lead to unfair outcomes and erode public confidence. In a significant step towards fostering ethical technology, the Institute for Diversity Certification (IDC)^® announces the launch of its Artificial and Machine Bias Prevention – Leader (AMBP-L)™ Certification program. This groundbreaking initiative equips leaders and professionals to prevent bias in the development and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), extended reality (XR), and deep learning technologies.

“In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, ensuring fairness and eliminating bias in AI, ML, and XR applications is paramount,” said Derwin Smiley, AMBP-L™, IDC^® CEO. “The AMBP-L™ Certification empowers leaders to navigate these complexities and build trust and transparency by proactively addressing bias throughout the development lifecycle.”
