AI Ethics

Gaggle is dedicated to approaching artificial intelligence ethically, detecting and correcting any determinable bias of our AI. We know how critical it is to serve all students equitably and strive to ensure our technology is safeguarding students in a fair and appropriate manner.  

Evaluate, Constrain, Own (ECO™)

Gaggle commits to these fundamentals of AI ethics:

Evaluate Bias in the Input Data

Evaluate Bias in the Input Data

A minority’s output data distribution is a function of that minority’s input data distribution. Therefore, determining the minority distribution of the input data is vital to ensuring that algorithms make fair and equitable decisions.

Constrain Bias in the Output Data

Constrain Bias in the Algorithmic Output

Gaggle gives statistical voice to self-reported and underrepresented minorities by ensuring they are fairly represented in the decision algorithms. This equalizes and constrains overall output bias.

Own Unintentionally Unconstrained or Unobserved Bias

Own Unintentionally Unconstrained or Unobserved Bias

Undesired, unanticipated, and unintentional biased output is always a risk (via uncompensated input data bias or generative bias from the decision algorithms). Therefore, it is vital that Gaggle listens and responds to any suspected bias observed by our community.

Gaggle is dedicated to detecting and compensating for any determinable bias either at the input or output of our AI. Any determinable output bias unintentionally undetected by us that is suspected and reported by the community we serve shall be investigated, validated, and acted upon.

“Our AI is a sentinel for children, finding those whose well-being is compromised. By committing to our AI-ECO principles, we ensure our AI qualifies the well-being of all students fairly and equitably.”
