Course Description

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data are everywhere. Their growing presence in our everyday lives makes it even more important to ensure we responsibly manage the data throughout our AI projects, whether at work or in our personal projects. This conceptual course will explore the fundamental theory behind responsible AI data management, such as security and transparency, before exploring licensing, acquisition, and validation.

Learn About Regulatory Compliance and Licensing

With an understanding of the fundamental theory, you'll use this knowledge to assess your compliance and licensing requirements (seeking legal counsel where appropriate). You'll learn about some of the most significant data regulations like HIPAA and GDPR, some of the most common license types, and how to use a data management plan to ensure your AI project always stays compliant.

Source and Use Data Responsibly

Responsible data practices also involve how and where you source your data. You'll understand whether or not a source is ethical, any limitations it might have, and how to integrate data from different sources.

Audit Your Data

Finally, you'll learn about data auditing and how to apply data validation and mitigation strategies to ensure your data stays bias-free. With all of these skills, you'll be able to critically assess and responsibly manage the data in any AI project. What's more, you can use these skills for any future data project, making you feel adaptable and prepared for whatever comes your way!
