Machine Learning For High-Risk Applications Av Patrick Hall, James Curtis, Parul Pandey

The past decade has witnessed a wide adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) technologies. However, a lack of oversight into their widespread implementation has resulted in harmful outcomes that could have been avoided with proper oversight.
