AI Fairness

AI Fairness is the discipline of ensuring AI systems treat individuals and groups equitably across protected and relevant characteristics. Fairness is not one thing — researchers have catalogued dozens of mathematical definitions including demographic parity, equalized odds, predictive parity, and individual fairness, many of which are mutually incompatible. Choosing which fairness definition applies is a contextual decision involving law, ethics, and stakeholder input. Real-world fairness work spans hiring algorithms (audited under NYC Local Law 144), credit decisioning (regulated by ECOA and FCRA in the U.S.), criminal-justice risk scoring (subject to ongoing litigation and reform), and medical AI (where group performance differences directly affect health outcomes). Tools include IBM AI Fairness 360, Microsoft Fairlearn, Google's What-If Tool, and various commercial fairness platforms. AI governance, AI compliance, and AI ethics frameworks make fairness a core dimension of responsible AI — and a continuous practice, not a one-time check, across every AI system in production environments.
