PatternFly AI Principles

Five core principles forming an ethics-first framework for AI design in PatternFly, covering accountability, transparency, and human-centred approaches.

  1. Accountability

    Take responsibility for AI systems and their outcomes, ensuring proper oversight and governance throughout the design and development process.

  2. Explainability

    Make AI decision-making processes understandable, allowing users and stakeholders to comprehend how and why AI reaches its conclusions.

  3. Transparency

    Be open about when AI is being used, its capabilities and limitations, and how it makes decisions. Keep users informed and in control.

  4. Fairness

    Design AI systems that treat all users equitably, actively working to identify and mitigate bias in data, algorithms, and outcomes.

  5. Human-centeredness

    Ensure AI enhances rather than replaces human abilities. Nurture collaboration, welcome multiple perspectives, and always validate AI output for accuracy.
