As artificial intelligence, autonomous intelligent systems (AIS), machine learning, autonomous vehicles, and robotics advance at a rapid pace, careful considerations need to be made during development and implementation regarding humanity. At IEEE SA, our global community has developed resources and standards globally recognized in the area of applied ethics and systems engineering and continues to develop accessible and sustainable approaches and solutions for pragmatic application of AIS principles and frameworks. IEEE SA offers standards, training and education, certification programs, and more, to empower stakeholders designing, developing, and using AIS. Global participation is encouraged to offer the broadest regional and cultural perspectives required to best contextualize how AIS systems can avoid risk and offer greatest benefit in operation.</p> </div> </div> <h2 style="text-align: left" class="vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading h3 mt-5 wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp" >Featured</h2><div class="vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid section sa_card-grid mt-4 vc_row-o-equal-height vc_row-flex"><div class="sa_card wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4"><div class="vc_column-inner vc_custom_1676571365688"><div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element mt-0"> <figure class="wpb_wrapper vc_figure"> <div class="vc_single_image-wrapper vc_box_border_grey"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="1280" height="720" src="https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched.jpg" class="vc_single_image-img attachment-full" alt="Hand holding globe" title="" srcset="https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched.jpg 1280w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched-300x169.jpg 300w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched-150x84.jpg 150w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/iStock-1090039320-retouched-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" /></div> </figure> </div> <h3 style="text-align: left" class="vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading h5" >IEEE CertifAIEd™: The Mark of AI Ethics</h3> <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element" > <div class="wpb_wrapper"> <p>For assessing ethics of AIS to help protect, differentiate, and grow product adoption.</p> <p><a class="card-link arrow-link stretched-link" href="https://engagestandards.ieee.org/ieeecertifaied.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span class="arrow-icon">Learn More About IEEE CertifAIEd™</span></a></p> </div> </div> </div></div></div><div class="sa_card wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeInUp fadeInUp wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4"><div class="vc_column-inner"><div class="wpb_wrapper"> <div class="wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_content_element mt-0"> <figure class="wpb_wrapper vc_figure"> <div class="vc_single_image-wrapper vc_box_border_grey"><img decoding="async" width="1280" height="720" data-src="https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003.jpg" class="vc_single_image-img attachment-full lazyload" alt="AI brain coming out of a tablet" title="" data-srcset="https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003.jpg 1280w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003-300x169.jpg 300w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003-150x84.jpg 150w, https://standards.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/iStock-1153304003-768x432.jpg 768w" data-sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==" style="--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px;
