Catalogue of Tools & Metrics for Trustworthy AI

These tools and metrics are designed to help AI actors develop and use trustworthy AI systems and applications that respect human rights and are fair, transparent, explainable, robust, secure and safe.

Z-Inspection



Z-Inspection

Z-Inspection® is a general inspection process for Ethical AI which can be applied to a variety of domains such as business, healthcare, public sector, among many others.

It uses applied ethics to assess Trustworthy AI in practice.

The Z-Inspection® process has the potential to play a key role in the context of the new EU Artificial Intelligence (AI) regulation.
