Nasscom Responsible AI Resource Kit
The Responsible AI Resource Kit is the culmination of a joint collaboration between Nasscom and leading industry partners to seed the adoption of responsible AI at scale.
The Resource Kit comprises sector-agnostic tools and guidance to enable businesses to leverage AI to grow and scale with confidence by prioritising user trust and safety.
To retain and improve the Kitʼs utility over time, Nasscom intends to maintain it as an evolving reference, progressively building on the latest research and best practices for responsible AI adoption generated by committed stakeholders from the industry, government, academia, think tanks, and civil society organisations, while recognising that responsible AI governance must lean on the precepts of multi-stakeholderism.

Responsible AI Principles

Inclusivity & Non-Discrimination
AI systems must be fair and inclusive, not fostering prejudices, discrimination or preference for an individual, a community or a group based on their sensitive attributes (e.g., race, gender, ethnicity).

Reliability & Safety
AI systems must produce consistent and reliable outputs in all scenarios. Appropriate grievance redressal mechanisms should be put in place to address cases of adverse impact.

Privacy
AI systems should respect user privacy. Users’ right to know what data is collected, why it is collected and who has access to it should be protected. AI systems should not use the data for purposes other than what is stated.

Security
AI system should be robust and secured against adversarial attacks and malicious use. Identifying and mitigating system vulnerabilities is critical.

Transparency
AI systems should be transparent about how they were developed, their processes, capabilities and limitations, to the extent possible.

Explainability
AI systems should be explainable to users significantly impacted by their decisions. Explanations must be provided free of cost in non-technical, intuitive language.

Accountability
Organisational structures and policies should be created to clarify who is accountable for the outcomes of AI systems. Human supervisory control of AI systems is recommended.

Protection and Reinforcement of Positive Human Values
AI systems should be designed and operated such that they align with human values. AI should promote positive human values for the progress of humanity as a whole.

Compliance
Throughout their lifecycle, AI systems should comply with all applicable laws, statutory standards, rules, and regulations – Organizations should be watchful of the evolving AI regulatory landscape and ensure compliance at all times.
