What is ethical AI?
Transparency and accountability are essential for building trust in AI technologies and mitigating potential harms.
Insight into an AI models mechanics including the data used to train it before it is applied is essential.
In the UK for example, the Information Commissioners Office has produced useful guidelines for ensuring transparency in AI.

Looking to international precedents like maritime law for universal standards is potentially a good starting point.
International agreements are also likely to take considerable time to be drafted and implemented.
