Description

Insufficient documentation of the system that uses the model and the model’s purpose within the system in which it is used.

A lack of documentation makes it difficult to understand how the model’s outcomes contribute to the system’s or application’s functionality.

We provide examples covered by the press to help explain many of the foundation models' risks. Many of these events covered by the press are either still evolving or have been resolved, and referencing them can help the reader understand the potential risks and work towards mitigations. Highlighting these examples are for illustrative purposes only.
