Salesforce partners with several civil society organizations to advance the field of ethical and inclusive technology. We’re also proud to partner with public policy leaders worldwide to influence responsible AI development.
Our members hold active positions on various ethical AI councils around the globe, including the U.S. National AI Advisory Committee, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Commission on Artificial Intelligence Competitiveness, Inclusion, and Innovation, the Singaporean Ethical AI Advisory Council, the Freedom Online Coalition’s Advisory Network, the Washington State Artificial Intelligence Task Force, the Oregon State Taskforce on Artificial Intelligence and the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology.
We recognize that achieving trusted AI cannot be the responsibility of a single company or individual and are proud to have publicly committed to several global voluntary commitments. These include pledges to conduct internal and external testing before product release, sharing information on risks and vulnerabilities with each other and government entities, and conducting research to address societal risks. To that end, we have signed onto the following voluntary commitments and industry pledges:
Moreover, Salesforce has been selected to be a part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)’s U.S. AI Safety Institute Consortium (AISIC) as a member of its inaugural class. We actively contribute our time and knowledge by participating in working groups and offering our expertise in building and deploying trusted AI. Additionally, we support the NIST AI Risk Management Framework and have published a Quick-Start Guide on how to implement it. Lastly, in line with our commitment to ethical technology, we closely collaborate with the World Economic Forum’s Responsible Use of Technology steering committee. This collaboration allows us to work with leaders across civil society, government and business to exchange best practices and collectively advance the field of ethical technology - together.
