The Learning Consortium for the Creative Economy 2015 Report

November 4, 2015

Although there were many variations observed during the site visits, the LC observed a striking convergence toward a set of management goals, principles, and values that are markedly different from the management practices of hierarchical bureaucracy that is still pervasive in large organizations today. Although there is no “one size fits all,” the site visits revealed a family resemblance among the goals, principles, and values of the companies visited. A universal feature of all the site visits was a recognition that achieving these benefits is dependent on the requisite leadership mindset. Where the management practices and methodologies were implemented without the requisite mindset, no benefits were observed. Individually, none of the observed management practices are new. What is new is the way that the new management goals, practices, and values constitute a coherent and integrated system, driven by and lubricated with a common leadership mindset.

Certifying Fairness of AI-Applications An Impossible Task?

whitePaper | January 28, 2022

Since more and more decisions that used to be made by humans are nowadays made either with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or by AI alone, it is essential that the AI algorithms are “fair.” In this whitepaper, we discuss issues surrounding the fairness of AI applications, with a special focus on how it can be assessed independently and subsequently certified. We explain why an AI application cannot be classified – and subsequently certified – as “fair” or “unfair” in a general sense and propose an approach that makes it possible to classify it as “fair” or “unfair” under the (application)-specific definition of fairness.
