The training and skills medium
A sandbox is an isolated, controlled environment used to run, test or analyse suspect programs and files without risk to the host system.
The aim is to avoid any contamination or compromise of the main system by limiting the actions of the programme under test to a confined environment.
With the rise of AI, sandboxes are evolving to test AI models before they go into production and protect them against attacks.
Bias in artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the tendency of an algorithm to produce biased results or decisions, favouring or disfavouring certain groups or individuals.
It reflects human biases or structural flaws in data, learning methods or the design of AI models. These biases can lead to unfair, discriminatory or inaccurate decisions, affecting specific groups or individuals disproportionately.
A bot (short for "robot") is a computer programme designed to perform automated, often repetitive tasks on a large scale, particularly on the Internet.
Bots can be used for both legitimate and malicious purposes.
According to the latest statistics, bots now account for almost half of all Internet traffic worldwide, with the proportion reaching 49.6% in 2023 (source: Thales/Imperva).
AI Cafés are informal, collaborative meetings organised within an organisation to raise awareness, train and engage employees around the challenges and opportunities of artificial intelligence (AI).
These sessions enable employees, whether experts or novices, to discuss AI in a relaxed setting, often accompanied by a coffee, in order to demystify the technology and encourage its adoption in the company's various businesses.
An AI Charter is a formal document that defines the principles, values and guidelines that govern the development, deployment and use of artificial intelligence within an organisation.
It is an essential tool for establishing an ethical and responsible framework for integrating AI into a company's operations, products and services.
