As we aim to operationalise ethics in our emerging technologies, we must turn to AI Assurance mechanisms and standards to guide our development. Standards play a crucial role in shaping the future of emerging technologies, serving multiple essential functions. This event will hear from the Bristish Standards Institute (BSI), The Alan Turing Institute, NPL and BSI AI Standards Hub and The National Physical Laboratory and tech sector representatives who sit on committees and create these standards, providing insights into the standard-making process.
