Dr. Shea Brown, the CEO of BABL AI, has taken a leading role as a founding member of the International Association of Algorithmic Auditors (IAAA). This association, comprising professionals from the AI industry, academia, and civil society across diverse sectors, is dedicated to pioneering frameworks for audited algorithms.
In response to the increasing prevalence of AI technologies, the IAAA aims to define standards for auditing practices while fostering global collaboration among auditors. Key objectives of the IAAA include the development of auditor certifications, hosting conferences, and promoting best practices in the field.
Dr. Brown stands alongside distinguished founding members, including Jenny Brennan, Rumman Chowdhury, Gemma Galdón, Divij Joshi, Jacob Metcalf, Ramak Molavi Vasse’i, Cathy O’Neil, and Mona Sloane. Emphasizing a multi-perspective approach encompassing technology, society, ethics, law, and philosophy, these founding members stress that addressing complex AI issues requires a comprehensive forum.
The IAAA was officially established during the inaugural International Algorithmic Auditing Conference held from November 8 to 10, 2022, in Barcelona. Recognizing the surge in AI adoption in recent years, the formation of the IAAA reflects a proactive response to the growing urgency of safeguarding humanity from emerging risks associated with AI.
