AI Audit & Ethics
Setting the standard for ethical, transparent, responsible, and human-centric AI.
Earn our Ethical AI Badge
To receive an AI Ethics Badge, an organization, individual, or company must undergo our AI audit, in which we receive detailed information on your AI and data use-cases and analyze the methodology from ideation to operation. Badges will be sent once we see our recommendations for ethical methodology have been deployed.
AI for Good Foundation is setting the standard for AI deployment best practices in company, classroom, and policy settings.
Our work is informed by the UN Sustainable Development Goals — and the human rights they champion. Our work is driven by a vision where companies leverage AI to bring out the best in the humans they serve.

“While it remains critical to global AI adoption to maintain cultures of open and flexible innovation, it is imperative, more so with AI than arguably any other frontier technology, to develop repeatable frameworks and processes in order to enable accountability, reproducibility, and scalability. ‘Learning’ models, by design, improve and adjust overtime, so firms looking to make AI ubiquitous across their business need to implement appropriate processes to ensure responsible adoption and applications of this tech.”
-Benjamin Cox
Impact Areas
Bias & Equity
We believe AI can promote equity and increase transparency and accountability in the labor market and beyond.
Data Privacy
We believe in a future where communities feel safe implementing AI with rigorous safety precautions and accountability.
Democratization
We believe that broadening access to data, infrastructure, and knowledge is critical to inclusive and scalable solutions.
Risk & Governance
We believe responsible AI governance and risk analysis are necessary for innovation and measurable SDG progress.
"The ubiquity of AI will require us to answer countless ethical questions surrounding its use and control — from decreasing bias to improving transparency. We need shared frameworks that not only inform our answers to these questions, but involve more of society in deliberating them."

Real-world perspective and expertise
The AI Ethics Institute
The AI Ethics Institute is composed of our dedicated Council for Good Members. Providing thought leadership in this new and necessary area of study, we are developing best practices on the ethical use of artificial intelligence technologies, including understanding social model bias, data privacy, risk management, governance, and more. Our best practices inform our education, policy, and research programs, as well as our relationships with corporate stakeholders. The work of The Institute contributes a strong, centered vision in the global debate around AI ethics at community, organisational, regional, national, and international levels.

AI Ethics for AI + SDG Launchpad
The work of the AI Ethics Institute informs not only the programs we offer corporate partners, but is also integral to our AI + SDG Launchpad curriculum. The AI + SDG Launchpad serves as a blueprint for single or multi-semester courses that allow students of the data-enabled sciences to engage with global challenges in the framework of UN Sustainable Development Goals in a structured and collaborative curriculum structure.
We are expanding our curriculum to HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities), as well as creating a free online learning course so that every student has equal access to our education, regardless of race, gender, or wealth.
Within each module of Launchpad, we offer applicable real world AI ethics topics including:
AI Ethics and Risk Management
AI Ethics and Healthcare
Algorithmic Auditing and Social Justice
AI Ethics - An African Perspective
AI, Intellectual Property, and Human Rights
Democratization and Governance of AI
Data Privacy and Federated Learning
Embracing Regulation
