accountability

Accountability is the obligation of an individual or organization to accept responsibility for their actions and decisions, and to be answerable for the outcomes, particularly in contexts like governance, law, and technology.

Why it’s in the news: It is in the news now due to increasing legal and ethical questions surrounding the responsibility for actions taken by autonomous AI systems and new regulatory measures to ensure transparency in institutions like the Federal Reserve.
