"AI Development has Major Security, Privacy and Ethical Blind Spots"

In a new study, it has been discovered that the most serious blind spot during AI development is security. Nearly three-quarters (73%) of respondents in the study, indicated they don’t check for security vulnerabilities during model building. More than half (59%) of organizations also don’t consider fairness, bias or ethical issues during ML development. It was also found that privacy is similarly neglected, with only 35% checking for issues during model building and deployment.  The majority (55%) of developers mitigate against unexpected outcomes or predictions, but this still leaves a large number who don’t. Of the respondents, 16% don’t check for any risks at all during development.
