Plan a responsible generative AI solution
The Microsoft guidance for responsible generative AI is designed to be practical and actionable. It defines a four stage process to develop and implement a plan for responsible AI when using generative models. The four stages in the process are:
- Identify potential harms that are relevant to your planned solution.
- Measure the presence of these harms in the outputs generated by your solution.
- Mitigate the harms at multiple layers in your solution to minimize their presence and impact, and ensure transparent communication about potential risks to users.
- Operate the solution responsibly by defining and following a deployment and operational readiness plan.
Note
These stages correspond closely to the functions in the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.
The remainder of this module discusses each of these stages in detail, providing suggestions for actions you can take to implement a successful and responsible generative AI solution.
