About this certificate
AI systems rely on large amounts of data, which raises privacy concerns. Without ethical guidelines and regulations in place, the misuse or mishandling of data can result in harm to individuals or groups. There are also large and widely misunderstood and misinterpreted implications for professionals working in financial services. Ideally, AI systems should be transparent, accountable and inclusive, and not reinforce or amplify existing inequalities. As AI becomes more advanced and widespread, there are growing concerns about issues such as bias, transparency, accountability and safety. If people do not believe that AI is being developed and used in a responsible and ethical manner, they hesitate to use it, and interact with beneficial technologies.
