This shift can occur without any explicit ethical breaches but through gradual changes in workplace practices.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>The impact of GenAI&#8217;s use may not manifest in a single scandal but through thousands of small, incremental decisions that collectively redefine concepts such as fairness, accountability, and care. This happens as people adapt to new technologies that make certain practices easier and more convincing.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Current responsible AI guidance focuses on embedding values in systems and checking compliance but overlooks the dynamic nature of values, which evolve through everyday practice influenced by technological changes.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>To achieve responsible AI, leaders and organizations must not only apply values to AI but also be vigilant about how AI usage reshapes the meaning and practical application of these values.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>A practical approach to responsible AI involves ongoing monitoring and review of AI-influenced decisions and processes, recognizing that ethical responsibilities involve keeping track of how values can shift over time as AI becomes embedded in everyday work.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI can slowly shift an organisation\u2019s core principles.
