==Trust in AI is built when AI is made demonstrably trustworthy, not when people are merely persuaded to accept it.[:cite[1]{ln=1}][:cite[1]{ln=2}]== What builds that trust, according to the report: A framework of safety, accountability, and predictability. The report says trust is about creating a framework in which stakeholders can reasonably rely on AI, not just improving public perception.[:cite[2]{ln=1}] It also describes trustworthy AI as AI developed and deployed in a safe, transparent, accountable, and trustworthy manner.[:cite[3]{ln=1}] Protection of rights and interests. People are more likely to trust AI when it is used in ways that respect their rights and protect their interests.[:cite[3]{ln=3}] The report says laws should focus on outcomes society cares about, especially protecting rights, ensuring safety, and promoting accountability .[:cite[4]{ln=4}] Strong safeguards from the start. Trust is fragile, and visible failures can destroy it quickly, so the report argues for a precautionary approach with safeguards in place before harms spread widely.[:cite[5]{ln=1}][:cite[5]{ln=4}] Voluntary standards for safety, auditing, transparency, and risk management. The report repeatedly says voluntary industry standards are a strong starting point for building trustworthy AI.[:cite[7]{ln=1}][:cite[6]{ln=1}] These standards help organizations manage AI risks, conduct impact assessments, and measure and test transparency.[:cite[6]{ln=2}] They also make principles such as transparency and fairness measurable and auditable in practice.[:cite[8]{ln=2}] Use of existing laws and enforceable rules. Trust is strengthened when governments enforce existing laws where AI creates risks, instead of waiting for entirely new AI laws.[:cite[10]{ln=5}][:cite[9]{ln=2}][:cite[9]{ln=3}] The report adds that clear rules give businesses confidence to develop and use AI responsibly.[:cite[10]{ln=6}] Flexible governance that adapts over time. The report says governments should build governance systems that regularly review new developments, fill regulatory gaps, strengthen enforcement, and adapt as AI changes.[:cite[10]{ln=7}] Stable and predictable governance frameworks also help firms invest in and rely on AI with confidence.[:cite[2]{ln=3}] Broad stakeholder involvement. Trust grows when governance is not done behind closed doors.[:cite[10]{ln=8}] The report specifically says policy makers should systematically involve businesses, researchers, civil society, and citizens .[:cite[10]{ln=8}] It also notes that transparent, participatory legislative processes increase legitimacy.[:cite[11]{ln=4}] Transparency about how systems are built and used. The report points to tools such as transparency requirements in contracts, model cards, and algorithmic impact assessments to help people understand how a model was made, what data were used, and what risks it creates.[:cite[12]{ln=1}][:cite[12]{ln=4}][:cite[12]{ln=5}][:cite[12]{ln=7}] Surveyed governance practices also include giving citizens clear notice when AI is used and public communication about how AI systems work.[:cite[13]{ln=1}] Evaluation, benchmarking, and continuous monitoring. Trustworthy AI requires setting performance standards before deployment, validating outputs in context, monitoring for degradation, and running impact evaluations.[:cite[15]{ln=6}][:cite[14]{ln=1}][:cite[14]{ln=2}] The report says documenting AI performance carefully and transparently helps foster public trust.[:cite[16]{ln=5}] Human review, grievance channels, and auditability. A baseline governance architecture includes documented human review, incident reporting, appeal and grievance channels, auditability, recordkeeping, and fallback or exit procedures when systems fail.[:cite[17]{ln=1}] The report says these procedures create legitimacy and foster trust.[:cite[17]{ln=2}] Operational oversight and accountability mechanisms. The report says trust depends on ongoing oversight against tampering, corruption, and unauthorized changes.[:cite[18]{ln=1}][:cite[18]{ln=4}] It also states that robust accountability mechanisms are essential if AI is to reinforce legitimacy and public trust rather than erode them.[:cite[19]{ln=5}] Preserving public control over AI systems. In government use, the report says AI should be procured and managed in ways that preserve public control, avoid lock in, and maintain internal authority over vendors.[:cite[14]{ln=3}][:cite[14]{ln=5}][:cite[20]{ln=1}][:cite[20]{ln=5}] If you want, I can also turn this into a very short 3 sentence answer or a presentation ready bullet list .[:cite[3]{ln=1}][:cite[2]{ln=1}]
