Guiding Principles for Artificial Intelligence
Recognizing the significant impact of AI on people, our customers, and wider society, SAP designed these guiding principles to steer the development and deployment of our AI software to help the world run better and improve people’s lives.
These guidelines are a commitment to move beyond what is legally required and to begin a deep and continuous engagement with the wider ethical and socioeconomic challenges of AI. We look forward to expanding our conversations with customers, partners, employees, legislative bodies, and civil society; and to making our guiding principles an evolving reflection on these discussions and the ever-changing technological landscape.
Q: Why does SAP need ethical guidelines for AI?
A: The ethical guidelines for AI are used to address concerns about AI and aim to ensure that SAP’s AI portfolio maintains integrity and continued trust in our company and our solutions. As the leader in enterprise technology touching 77% of the world’s transaction revenue and serving more than 400, 000 customers worldwide, SAP applications impact the lives of billions of people on a daily basis. We are looking at the ethical and societal implications of the latest advances in technology and contributing to the public debate about this subject. Our objective is to carry on creating software that augments humanity to use its intellectual potential.
