What is an Impact Assessment?

An impact assessment is a systematic process of identifying, evaluating, and addressing the potential effects of AI systems, data usage, and algorithmic processes on individuals, organizations, and society. These assessments are crucial for ensuring that your technology strategies not only achieve their goals but also align with ethical standards, legal requirements, and social expectations.

Examples of Impact Assessments include:
