KPMG Trusted AI

KPMG Trusted AI can help with designing, building, deploying, and using AI tech solutions in a responsible and ethical manner, seeking to accelerate value with confidence.


KPMG member firms are committed to using AI ethically and responsibly


We believe in the transformative power of AI. And that it can only reach its full potential when it is paired with human expertise and ingenuity.

At KPMG, our purpose is to inspire confidence and empower change. Tracing our origins back over 150 years, our people have played a leading role in harnessing the power of new technologies and providing assurance and direction in implementing them.

KPMG member firms are committed to upholding ethical standards for AI solutions that align with our values and professional standards, and that foster the trust of our clients, people, communities, and regulators. We are steadfast in our commitment to act in a way that serves the public interest, honors public trust, and demonstrates our commitment to professional excellence.


The KPMG Trusted AI principles

Across KPMG member firms, our approach to trusted AI includes foundational principles that guide our aspirations in this space, demonstrating our commitment to using it responsibly and ethically:

Values-driven

We implement AI as guided by our Values. They are our differentiator and shape a culture that is open, inclusive and operates to the highest ethical standards. Our Values inform our day-to-day behaviours and help us navigate emerging opportunities and challenges.

Human-centric

We prioritize human impact as we deploy AI and recognize the needs of our clients and our people. We are embracing this technology to empower and augment human capabilities — to unleash creativity and improve productivity in a way that allows people to reimagine how they spend their days.

Trustworthy

We will adhere to our principles and the ethical pillars that guide how and why we use AI across its lifecycle. We will strive to ensure our data acquisition, governance and usage practices upholds ethical standards and complies with applicable privacy and data protection regulations, as well as any confidentiality requirements.

We recognize that the field of AI is rapidly evolving — and so is our approach. As the technology advances and legal, ethical, risk and regulatory standards mature, we will continue to review and evolve our approach as necessary.
