Foundational artificial intelligence risk assessment framework
The FAIRA framework is a transparency, accountability, and risk identification tool for Queensland Government agencies evaluating artificial intelligence (AI) solutions. The FAIRA aims to help stakeholders identify risks and potential mitigation actions specific to the AI lifecycle. FAIRA is ‘foundational’ because stakeholders can use it to describe an AI solution in terms of technical components, system design, human interaction, implementation, and their associated impacts to provide foundations for management action in existing risk processes.
The FAIRA consists of a components analysis and values assessment. The components analysis ensures that the AI solution is fully described within its intended context of use. The values assessment ensures that the risks of an AI solution, within its context of use, are identified and managed though an agency's ICT risk register and aligned to The National Framework for the Assurance of AI in Government 2024.
