AI Standards
Standards take a long time to develop and needs a lot of consensus building. The success of AI Standards depends on whether they are widely adopted and used.
Currently, not all AI industries, universities and government agencies have endorsed nor agreed to strictly follow such standards. The following are some standards that were developed to mitigate AI Risks and to include AI Ethics.
