Determining responsibility considerations for AI ecosystems in the context of the creative industries

This talk provides key insights from our scoping BRAID project ‘Creating a dynamic archive of Responsible AI Ecosystems in the context of Creative AI’. The project lays the foundation work for mapping RAI ecosystems in this context by using bottom-up evidence already collected in specific research and artistic projects. We interpret AI ecosystems as interlinked ecosystems consisting of different individual actors and groups interacting in complex ways with one another and with AI applications. Evidence collected from the case studies are modelled into a dynamic archive to enable us to determine the boundaries of these ecosystems and the relevant responsibility considerations. The structure of the dynamic archive is based on present and future stakeholders and on responsibility priorities identified by the case studies participants. The talk includes insights relating to the responsible use of AI applications both as actors within the ecosystem and as external curators of the dynamic archive.
