Book Description
Responsible AI in the Enterprise is a comprehensive guide to implementing ethical, transparent, and compliant AI systems in an organization. With a focus on understanding key concepts of machine learning models, this book equips you with techniques and algorithms to tackle complex issues such as bias, fairness, and model governance.
Throughout the book, you’ll gain an understanding of FairLearn and InterpretML, along with Google What-If Tool, ML Fairness Gym, IBM AI 360 Fairness tool, and Aequitas. You’ll uncover various aspects of responsible AI, including model interpretability, monitoring and management of model drift, and compliance recommendations. You’ll gain practical insights into using AI governance tools to ensure fairness, bias mitigation, explainability, privacy compliance, and privacy in an enterprise setting. Additionally, you’ll explore interpretability toolkits and fairness measures offered by major cloud AI providers like IBM, Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, while discovering how to use FairLearn for fairness assessment and bias mitigation. You’ll also learn to build explainable models using global and local feature summary, local surrogate model, Shapley values, anchors, and counterfactual explanations.
By the end of this book, you’ll be well-equipped with tools and techniques to create transparent and accountable machine learning models.
What you will learn

Editorial Reviews
Review
“I believe that the GenAI wave has brought a lot of important questions around this topic to the fore, so it was great to get my hands on a resource that could help me get to grips with the latest thinking in the space. I was not disappointed!
Some highlights for me:
– There’s a strong message throughout the book that a focus on the responsible use of AI by your organization is not a ‘nice to have’ but a critical ingredient for future success and positive participation in society. Couldn’t agree more!
– Chapter 2 has some great case studies of when things have gone wrong, very wrong and extremely wrong. Everyone should study these and their implications!
– Other early chapters give good discussion of important concepts like drift, explainability and interpretability, which sets a strong foundation.
– Chapter 5 provides a discussion of important existing and upcoming AI regulations and industry standards. This was such a good overview and a chapter I definitely want to keep handy for many future conversations with stakeholders.
– Throughout the book there is very up to date information on LLMs and Foundation Models, including a good overview of different model characteristics and the importance of understanding source data and system biases.
– The book is rounded off with a series of chapters discussing different toolkits and applications for making responsible AI a reality, which helps to translate the theory into practice.
Overall, an excellent resource and one I’d encourage you to look at!”
