How Sofia is building a better working world

“I help empower individuals with the tools and knowledge they need to harness the power of AI, so that we can build a better working world founded upon responsible innovation.

I have led the development of the EY responsible AI Framework, a set of guiding principles and practical actions that govern the development and use of AI to drive responsible innovation, help manage risk, and build trust in AI.

By providing businesses and practitioners with the guidelines to develop more equitable AI technologies and creating rigorous frameworks for their usage, individuals and businesses can more intelligently harness the power of AI.

As a result, business leaders can make more informed decisions about how much is entrusted to these emerging technologies, thus creating better protections for consumers and citizens.”
