Accenture has expanded its collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS), introducing the Accenture Responsible Artificial Intelligence (AI) Platform powered by AWS. This platform aims to help enterprises embrace and scale AI, with a strong emphasis on trust and reliability throughout their operations.
“Our work with AWS is focused on helping our clients establish and embed responsible AI at scale, closing the gap between principles and action. For the first time, Accenture plans to offer comprehensive end-to-end services spanning AI governance setup, AI risk assessment, generative AI testing, ongoing compliance support, regulation management and security for AWS workloads,” said Arnab Chakraborty, chief responsible AI officer, Accenture.
The Accenture Responsible AI Platform, powered by AWS, will integrate essential components of responsible AI to help clients develop a continuous cycle of monitoring, testing, and compliance throughout their organizations. Designed for AWS environments, the platform offers a unified view of assets, open-source tools, and industry standards for responsible AI, enabling enterprises to integrate these pieces into their workflows. The platform's user-friendly interface and step-by-step approach allow company executives to assess their AI maturity and conduct risk assessments using industry benchmark data.
“With our expanded collaboration, Accenture Responsible Artificial Intelligence Platform powered by AWS will help customers adopt and scale AI rapidly and with confidence. This platform will make it easier for customers to use our growing portfolio of responsible AI solutions, and provide a holistic assessment as well as ongoing monitoring and testing to help clients with their compliance obligations in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment. With Accenture, we are empowering more customers to experiment and innovate safely with generative AI,” said Vasi Philomin, vice president of generative AI at AWS.
The platform brings together Accenture's best practices and proprietary responsible AI framework with AWS's premier AI services portfolio, which includes Amazon Bedrock and Amazon SageMaker, as well as additional solutions such as AWS Control Tower, Amazon DataZone, and AWS observability tools.
Moreover, the Accenture Responsible AI Platform has five primary components designed to assist clients in establishing and enforcing AI policies, principles, and standards. These components include AI governance and principles, AI risk assessment, systematic responsible AI testing and risk mitigation, monitoring and compliance assistance, and an emphasis on corporate impact, including workforce, sustainability, privacy, and security.
