Module 7 Assignment: Responsible AI and governance basics

Module 7 Assignment: Responsible AI and governance basics#

Scenario#

You are advising an AI review team evaluating a proposed applied AI system before pilot deployment. The stakeholders are: technical lead, domain owner, governance reviewer, and end-user representative.

Task#

Answer the module question: What risks must be addressed before deployment?

Use the module lab and course readings to produce: AI system review package with architecture, evidence, limitations, and deployment recommendation focused on responsible ai and governance basics: Draft a lightweight risk register for the running project..

Required Evidence#

  • Define the decision or system boundary in one paragraph.

  • Identify the dataset, proxy data, or evidence source you used: synthetic system evidence including task features, model outputs, confidence signals, and review outcomes.

  • Compare at least two alternatives, baselines, policies, or designs.

  • Report one quantitative result or structured scoring table.

  • Explain two failure modes and one mitigation for each.

  • State what additional evidence would be required before real deployment.

Submission#

Submit the completed notebook plus a 900-1200 word memo. The memo must include clear headings for context, method, evidence, risks, recommendation, and open questions.

Acceptance Criteria#

Your submission is complete only if another reviewer can reproduce your reasoning from the evidence you provide. You do not need production-grade data, but you must be explicit about proxy-data limits and what would change with real institutional data.
