Infosys launches open-source responsible AI Toolkit to enhance trust and transparency in AI

Infosys announced the launch of its open-source Responsible AI Toolkit. This toolkit is a key component of the Infosys Topaz Responsible AI Suite, designed to help enterprises innovate responsibly while addressing the challenges and risks associated with ethical AI adoption.

The Infosys Responsible AI Toolkit builds on the Infosys AI3S framework (Scan, Shield, and Steer), equipping enterprises with advanced defensive technical guardrails, including specialised AI models and shielding algorithms. These guardrails aim to detect and mitigate issues such as privacy breaches, security attacks, sensitive information leakages, biased output, harmful content, copyright infringement, hallucinations, malicious use, deepfakes, and more. The toolkit also enhances model transparency by providing insights into the rationale behind AI-generated output without compromising on performance or user experience.

The open-source toolkit offers flexibility and ease of implementation. It is fully customisable, compatible with diverse models and agentic AI systems, and integrates seamlessly across cloud and on-premise environments. Organisations can access the toolkit online.
