Transparency
Also known as: explainability (disclosure)
Transparency is making clear — to users and to auditors — what an AI system does, what it’s based on, and where its limits lie.
- Disclose when content is AI-generated.
- Explain the basis for high-stakes decisions.
- Log and make decisions reconstructable.
The trust link: transparency converts "the black box decided" into "here's what it did and why." That's the difference between a mystery and a system you can rely on.
