WHAT IS AN Algorithmic Impact Assessment
An Algorithmic Impact Assessment (AIA) is a systematic and documented process used to identify, evaluate, and mitigate the potential impacts of algorithmic and AI systems on individuals, organizations, and society. The assessment analyzes risks related to fairness, bias, discrimination, transparency, explainability, data protection, human oversight, security, and societal harm.
