What is 鈥渢houghtfulness鈥� in AI Ethics Audits?Recipient:听, majoring in Cognitive Science Project Overview: The increase in regulatory activities in AI has led to a rise in auditing frameworks to hold designers of machine learning systems accountable, namely the increased number of AI ethics consultancies offering audit services. Unlike traditional engineering domains, the AI industry has yet to develop a standard for conducting meaningful and effective audits of ML systems. This results in reports that could provide a false sense of security for those requesting audits, independent of the quality and rigour of the audit conducted for a system or company. This project aims to hold the AI ethics auditors responsible and accelerate the processes of standardising AI ethics audits by investigating what constitutes a 鈥渢houghtful鈥� report. SUPERVISORS
