How is AI used in risk management?

 

Generative AI is the game-changer, marking the culmination of Internet search capabilities and promising to revolutionize various aspects of our daily lives and work.Generative AI enables creators and forms the foundation of innovation by generating data that simulates a genuine “real-feel” data experience.

Gen-AI tools are used for creating content including audio, code, images, text, simulations and videos that give real-feel sense just like human-created artifacts. More than being a companion to creators, it has practical uses too, like creating new product designs and optimizing business processes.

While similar claims have been made about AI in the past, the latest applications of generative AI continue to generate excitement. But there is no replica to human intelligence, therefore we should responsibly use generative AI.

This piece of information will shed light on the concerns pertaining with Generative AI models:

Challenges Faced in Generative AI in Risk Management

1. Managing Misinterpretation of Information

An AI generative model uses the data it has been trained on to create coherent language or images. However, in the case of natural language programs, although the phrasing and grammar may appear convincing, the actual content can be partially or entirely inaccurate This leaves users of large language models questioning the factual value of eloquent outputs they receive.

Chiefly, the risk with this kind of natural application is that it “hallucinates” an inaccurate output and invents references without any valid source. A generative uses information learned from the dataset to create meaningful content such as sentences or paragraphs or images. With natural language programs, the language produced may sound sensible and well-structured coherently, but it doesn't guarantee that the information provided is accurate or valid.

Moreover, we witness the potential risk of inheriting bias within the models owing to the data over which they are trained. The models can have biases embedded in them due to the data used for training. If the training data is biased or reflects existing prejudices, AI models may also produce biased outputs.

2. The Matter of Attribution

In the real world, concepts like "attribution" (giving credit to the original creator) and "copyright" (legal protection of intellectual property) are crucial and legally upheld. It means that the data used to train these AI models may include copyrighted material or content that requires proper attribution to its sources.

Data sets include information from online encyclopedias, digitized books, customer reviews or curated data sets. Even after citing data from accurate source information, it can still present outputs coming from obscure attribution or may violate copyright and trademark rights.

If several language model outputs extract content without accrediting the source, there will be a sharp increase in plagiarism- who then would hold accountability in such a scenario? Humans.

Therefore contending with attribution becomes difficult, we must learn the responsible use of Generative AI to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.  A tool replicates human creativity by parroting something extracted from the data it computes. If organizations use Generative AI-based applications, they must implement relevant checks and assessments to ensure attribution.

3. Real Transparency & Broad User Explainability

Some of the generative AI models come with a disclaimer stating that the outputs extracted may lack accuracy and precision. Still, some of the users do not take a careful look at the terms and conditions and fail to understand technology works, large language model's explainability may get hampered.

They fail to understand how the technology works and because of these underlying factors, the large language model's explainability suffers. Users must have a manual with a definite explanation of the technicalities in a non-technical way, clearly describing its capabilities and associated risks.

Paving Road for Generative AI in Risk Management

Without any hint of doubt, AI is penetrating our lives and easing our work by producing results in the blink of an eye. Its human-like capabilities have made designers, creators and even enterprises ease with operations. However, Gen AI may have the prowess to mimic human creativity, we must understand it cannot mimic the “thought process” of humans and carefully see the human side of this equation. AI will have a sense of impact and we can't make AI accountable in any meaningful sense.

There is a lack of transparency with Gen AI becoming elusive and “keeping the human in the loop” becomes a pressing concern. It is also very uncertain to assess the consequences that arise from GenerativeAI in Risk Management i.e., the proliferation of data to ascertain the objectives and derive results. The AI model does not have any autonomy or intent. The trustworthiness of Generative AI depends on how organizations make use of it. The enterprises are rapidly evolving in the AI field, we must carefully consider analysis, scrutiny, context awareness and the humanity of people at the center of AI endeavors. Moreover, look for factors of trust and ethics that should be addressed.

Deloitte AI Institute: Evolve with AI Ecosystems

To help organizations get a hold of AI ecosystems, Deloitte AIInstitute helps organizations and business owners connect on different levels of the highly dynamic and rapidly evolving AI ecosystem. The Deloitte AI Institute promotes a dialogue of artificial intelligence and assesses challenges in AI implementation and ways to address them. The AI institute collaborates with the ecosystem of academic research groups, start-ups, and AI visionaries to venture into the key areas of artificial intelligence that Deloitte's deep knowledge and experience in artificial intelligence applications deliver impactful perspectives to help organizations succeed by making informed AI decisions. 

In a nutshell, we have witnessed the rise of using Generative AI. The results of Generative AI depend on their application which may include handling risk management, an aspect that hasn't been extensively explored compared to their capabilities. With Deloitte AI institute learn the ways to manage risks associated with Generative AI.
