Our guest is Cathy O'Neil, author of Weapons of Math Destruction: how big data increases inequality and threatens democracy. Cathy joined us to discuss critical aspects for auditors to consider, including: The human element: why understanding 'for whom an algorithm might fail' is more important than the detailed technical design of an algorithm. Algorithm testing: the importance of post-deployment testing to ensure there are no unintended adverse outcomes. Setting standards: the need for industry-wide standards so that regulators can ensure there is no bias or discrimination in how algorithms operate. Laggers and leaders: the four big industries/domains using algorithms that need to step up audit in their space and how law-makers and regulators are catching up. Emerging AI, e.g. language models/chatbots - why trust by users is key, and the pros and cons of using these models.

13 | Monitoring the status of performance audit recommendations (including follow-up audits) 11:25

há 2 years11:25

11:25

In this episode, we talk about how audit offices monitor (and report on) the status of implementation of performance audit recommendations. We monitor the status of our PA recommendations for several reasons: We want to ensure that our work has impact We may have a legislative requirement to follow-up Stakeholders have asked us to provide updates on progress against agreed actions We want to check if further work is required in areas that we've previously audited. How we do this ranges in nature and scale, from ongoing monitoring that relies on auditee submissions to full-scale follow-up audits with significant levels of testing.
