CKO-010Foundations of Responsible AIStrong evidence

What is the most important principle for responsible AI in evidence synthesis?

AI should only be used when it improves efficiency or capability without compromising rigour, transparency, accountability, reproducibility or trust.

In more detail

Across all four webinars and all three RAISE papers, the central message is consistent: AI is not valuable because it is new. It is valuable only when it supports the production of trustworthy evidence. Every decision about AI use should ultimately be evaluated against this principle.

Why it matters

This principle acts as a decision rule for all AI adoption decisions.

Decision rule

If trustworthiness decreases, the AI use is not justified.

Common misconception
