VMind developed this principium in agreence with a set of five common agreed-upon principles shared by major AI ethics declarations from across the world: (1) explicability, (2) beneficence, (3) autonomy, (4) justice, and (5) non-maleficence.
These five principles were identified by
L. Floridi and J. Cowls (2019) as common to all the following major AI ethics declarations:
the 2017 Asilomar AI Principles (Future of Life Institute 2017);
the 2017 Montreal Declaration for Responsible AI (Forum on the Socially Responsible Development of AI, 2017); the
General Principles of the 2nd version of the Ethically Aligned Design document by the IEEE Global Initiative on Ethics of Autonomous and Intelligent Systems (IEEE 2017); the European Commission’s European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies’
2018 Statement on Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and ‘Autonomous’ Systems (EGE 2018); the ’five overarching principles for an AI code’ in the 2018 UK House of Lords Artificial Intelligence Committee’s report
AI in the UK (House of Lords 2018); and the six Pillars of the
Partnership on AI (Partnership on AI, 2018).
