Through a field scan, this paper identifies emerging best practices as well as methods and tools that are becoming commonplace, and enumerates common barriers to leveraging algorithmic audits as effective accountability mechanisms.
ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (ACM FAccT)
This report presents evidence on the use of algorithmic accountability policies in different contexts from the perspective of those implementing these tools, and explores the limits of legal and policy mechanisms in ensuring safe and accountable algorithmic systems.
This report offers a detailed assessment of how AI and emerging technologies could impact the Social Security Administration’s disability benefits determinations, recommending guardrails and principles to protect applicant rights, mitigate bias, and promote fairness.
This paper introduces a framework for algorithmic auditing that supports artificial intelligence system development end-to-end, to be applied throughout the internal organization development lifecycle.
ACM Conference on Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency (ACM FAccT)
This hub introduces the UK government's Algorithmic Transparency Recording Standard (ATRS), a structured framework for public sector bodies to disclose how they use algorithmic tools in decision-making.
This framework provides practical guidance, detailed reference designs, and example solutions to help organizations securely adopt and operationalize Zero Trust principles across diverse IT environments.
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
This report analyzes the growing use of generative AI, particularly large language models, in enabling and scaling fraudulent activities, exploring the evolving tactics, risks, and potential countermeasures.
The primer–originally prepared for the Progressive Congressional Caucus’ Tech Algorithm Briefing–explores the trade-offs and debates about algorithms and accountability across several key ethical dimensions, including fairness and bias; opacity and transparency; and lack of standards for auditing.
