AI Transparency

Definition

AI transparency means being clear about where AI is used, what it does, and how outputs should be interpreted. Transparency includes communicating limitations and uncertainty. It helps users and stakeholders set accurate expectations.

Business Context

In products, this can include labelling AI assisted features, explaining confidence, and providing guidance when outputs are uncertain. Internally, it includes documenting data sources and decision logic.

Why it Matters

It improves trust and reduces misuse caused by misunderstanding.
