AI KR Guideline: EGOVERNANCE of KNOWLEDGE REPRESENTATION FOR TRUSTWORTHY AI
SYSTEM

The intent of Egovernance of Knowledge Representation for trustworthy AI
system is to promote good governance, as in, the implementation of AIKR
egovernance processes and functions will enable accountable and transparent
governance. It is based on:

Artificial intelligence (AI) describes a system that mimics "cognitive"
functions which humans associate with the human mind, such as "learning"
and "problem solving". AIKR (Artificial Intelligence Knowledge
Representation) can be (1) meta-representation information about the
system’s own state, and/or (2) information about a domain, in a form that
enables a machine to provide a solution for a specific problematic task.

A Trustworthy AI System is said to have three characteristics that are part
of it’s entire life cycle:

1. Lawful: complies with all applicable laws and regulations, such as,
provision audit data defined by a governance operating model;

2. Ethical: ensures adherence to pivotal principles, such as,
confidentiality, autonomy, accountability, and veracity;
3. Robust: designed to handle uncertainty and tolerate perturbation from a
likely threat perspective, such as, design considerations incorporate
human, social and technology risk factors.
