About this tag
The responsible AI tag on WindowsForum covers governance, certification, and operational deployment of AI systems built with Microsoft tools. Discussions include Washington State's AI Task Force report, which produced 11 recommendations balancing guardrails with adoption, and Indra Group earning AENOR's Responsible AI certification for Copilot Studio agents, validating controls across configuration, data quality, and lifecycle management. Other threads examine Microsoft's internal AI governance through employee councils and capability groups, Copilot training in Australia emphasizing responsible workplace use, and AI applications in social work and telehealth that prioritize safety and reduced administrative burden. The tag reflects ongoing efforts to embed responsible AI principles into enterprise and public-sector deployments, focusing on practical controls rather than policy alone.
