===== Why? ===== Mozilla has ideas for how to work towards AI that enriches the lives of human beings, rather than harms them. We urgently call it [https://foundation.mozilla.org/blog/trustworthy-ai-abridged-version/ ‘trustworthy AI’] and this framing guides a large part of our work. If we want a healthy internet — and a healthy digital society — we need citizensto make sure AI is trustworthy. AI, and the large pools of data that fuel it, are central to how computing works today. If we want apps, social networks, governments our devices and companies government to serve us as people — and as citizens — we need to understand make sure the way we build with AI has things like privacy and stand up for fairness built in from the Internet as a public resource for allget go.<br /><br />
===== How? ===== '''Mozilla is transforming itself for a new era[[File: focused on Internet health well beyond the browser.''' MoCo brings our values into market via products + tech; MoFo fuels a larger movement for Internet health.

We will make more people aware of these issuesTrustworthy AI: transparency, invite them to express their support bias and encourage them to take action. Some actions will be small, like becoming a member or sharing an educational video. Some will be big, like writing code or running a campaign to get web literacy in local schools. better data governance (Phase 3 - 2021+) ==
When we turned our attention to AI, we started to ask: how can we make the data driven technologies we all use everyday more trustworthy? How can we make things like social networks, home assistants and search engines both more helpful and less harmful in the era ahead?
