Comments received on the OECD Framework for the Classification of AI Systems
The Framework has been through a public consultation process to get feedback from as many perspectives and stakeholder groups to improve its relevance and user-friendliness.
The Framework has been through a public consultation process to get feedback from as many perspectives and stakeholder groups to improve its relevance and user-friendliness.
Some stakeholder groups who participated include: standards & technical bodies; business; legislators; regulator networks; civil society, consumers and others.
Some of the questions we asked stakeholders:
- Should there be a distinction between core and and non-core criteria? In other words, should there be a core classification framework for less-technical audiences plus additional considerations for more technical and informed users?
- Which characteristics should be core criteria and which ‘optional’?
- Can AI systems be classified with the core criteria both consistently and reliably?
- Which criteria are useful for a more detailed and technically-oriented framework?
- Should there be criteria and classifications that are specific to industries or application domains, e.g. depending on context?
We would like to wholeheartedly thank the organisations and individuals who submitted comments and contributions during the public consultation phase of the preliminary version of the framework (31 May to 30 June 2021). These inputs were invaluable as the OECD.AI team made significant revisions and improvements to the report based on the feedback received.
While OECD.AI is unable to list everyone who participated, particularly noteworthy written feedback was received from:
