Building a dataset on corporate AI adoption to drive transparency and promote responsible business practices.
The AI Company Data Initiative (AICDI) helps businesses to map their AI use, harness opportunities and mitigate operational risk.
Businesses across the globe are rapidly adopting AI tools to innovate and improve efficiency. Yet without due diligence, companies’ use of AI could pose material risk, as well as human rights implications and environmental impacts. Through a voluntary survey, we support companies of all sizes to assess how AI is embedded in their operations, products and services.
We provide a benchmark of AI policies and practices. This allows companies to maximise the potential of this technology while minimising risks to people and planet.
By guiding companies to map their AI adoption, the AI Company Data Initiative also enables them to get ahead of the curve of incoming laws and audits.
Powered by the Thomson Reuters Foundation and grounded in UNESCO’s Recommendation on the Ethics of AI, the AICDI is building a comprehensive global dataset to drive responsible corporate AI adoption, for the benefit of all.
