CognitiveScale Wins Global AI Award for Responsible AI and Ethics

CognitiveScale’s Cortex Certifai product has been named the winner of the Responsible AI and Ethics award in the Global AI Awards 2019-2020. Cortex Certifai is the “world’s first AI Risk Scanner application that automatically detects and scores vulnerabilities in any black-box AI model.”

Cortex Certifai helps organizations look under the hood of machine learning (ML) models and answer these questions:

  • How did the AI application and the ML model driving it predict what they predicted?
  • Has the model treated some customers differently from others? Is it biased?
  • Is the model compliant with industry regulations?
  • How easily can the model be fooled?

The organization behind the award, the Global Annual Achievement Awards for Artificial Intelligence (also known as Awards.AI), established the award “to support the AI community by recognizing the hard work and dedication of those working in the field.” Awards.AI is now in its fourth year.
