4. Fairness

Members of the JSAI will always be fair. Members of the JSAI will acknowledge that the use of AI may bring about additional inequality and discrimination in society which did not exist before, and will not be biased when developing AI. Members of the JSAI will, to the best of their ability, ensure that AI is developed as a resource that can be used by humanity in a fair and equal manner.

· (6) Fairness, Accountability, and Transparency

Under the "AI Ready society", when using AI, fair and transparent decision making and accountability for the results should be appropriately ensured, and trust in technology should be secured, in order that people using AI will not be discriminated on the ground of the person's background or treated unjustly in light of human dignity. Under the AI design concept, all people must be treated fairly without unjustified discrimination on the grounds of diverse backgrounds such as race, sex, nationality, age, political beliefs, religion, etc. Appropriate explanations should be provided such as the fact that AI is being used, the method of obtaining and using the data used in AI, and the mechanism to ensure the appropriateness of the operation results of AI according to the situation AI is used. In order for people to understand and judge AI proposals, there should be appropriate opportunities for open dialogue on the use, adoption and operation of AI, as needed. In order to ensure the above viewpoints and to utilize AI safely in society, a mechanism must be established to secure trust in AI and its using data.

6. Act with integrity

Members of the JSAI are to acknowledge the significant impact which AI can have on society. They will therefore act with integrity and in a way that can be trusted by society. As specialists, members of the JSAI will not assert false or unclear claims and are obliged to explain the technical limitations or problems in AI systems truthfully and in a scientifically sound manner.

7. Accountability and Social Responsibility

Members of the JSAI must verify the performance and resulting impact of AI technologies they have researched and developed. In the event that potential danger is identified, a warning must be effectively communicated to all of society. Members of the JSAI will understand that their research and development can be used against their knowledge for the purposes of harming others, and will put in efforts to prevent such misuse. If misuse of AI is discovered and reported, there shall be no loss suffered by those who discover and report the misuse.

5 DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION PRINCIPLE

AIS must meet intelligibility, justiﬁability, and accessibility criteria, and must be subjected to democratic scrutiny, debate, and control. 1) AIS processes that make decisions affecting a person’s life, quality of life, or reputation must be intelligible to their creators. 2) The decisions made by AIS affecting a person’s life, quality of life, or reputation should always be justiﬁable in a language that is understood by the people who use them or who are subjected to the consequences of their use. Justiﬁcation consists in making transparent the most important factors and parameters shaping the decision, and should take the same form as the justiﬁcation we would demand of a human making the same kind of decision. 3) The code for algorithms, whether public or private, must always be accessible to the relevant public authorities and stakeholders for veriﬁcation and control purposes. 4) The discovery of AIS operating errors, unexpected or undesirable effects, security breaches, and data leaks must imperatively be reported to the relevant public authorities, stakeholders, and those affected by the situation. 5) In accordance with the transparency requirement for public decisions, the code for decision making algorithms used by public authorities must be accessible to all, with the exception of algorithms that present a high risk of serious danger if misused. 6) For public AIS that have a signiﬁcant impact on the life of citizens, citizens should have the opportunity and skills to deliberate on the social parameters of these AIS, their objectives, and the limits of their use. 7) We must at all times be able to verify that AIS are doing what they were programmed for and what they are used for. 8) Any person using a service should know if a decision concerning them or affecting them was made by an AIS. 9) Any user of a service employing chatbots should be able to easily identify whether they are interacting with an AIS or a real person. 10) Artiﬁcial intelligence research should remain open and accessible to all.

3.2 Dignity

It is the duty of all members of society to mutually respect and protect this right as one of the basic and inviolable rights of every human being. Every individual has the right to protect own dignity: violation or non respect of this right is sanctioned by law. Human dignity (further: dignity) should be understood as a starting principle (principle) that focuses on the preservation of human integrity. Based on that premise, the persons to whom these Guidelines refershould at all times, regardless of the stage in which the concrete artificial intelligence solution isIdevelopment, application or use), keep in mind the person and his integrity as a central concept. In thisregard, it is necessary to develop systems that, at every stage, make it imperative to respect theperson's personality, his freedom and autonomy. Respecting human personality means creating a system that will respect the cognitive, social andcultural characteristics of each individual. The artificial inteligence systems that are being developed must be in accordance with the above, therefore it is necessary to take care that they cannot in any waylead to the subordination of man to the functions of the system, as well as endangering his dignity andintegrity. In order to ensure respect for the principle of dignity, artificial intelligence systems must not be such that in the processes of work and application they grossly ignore the autonomy of human choice. The Constitution of the Republic of Serbia emphasizes that dignity "is inviolable and everyone is obliged to respectand protect it., Evervone has the right to free personal development, if it does not violate the rights of others guaranteed by the Constitution. The Convention on Human Rights states the following: "Human dignity (dignity) is not only a basic human right but also the foundation of human rights." Human dignity is inherent in every human being. In the Republic of Serbia, this term is regulated in the following ways: "The dignity of the person (honor, reputation, or piety) of the person to whom the information refers.'it is legally protected.” "Whoever abuses another or treats him in a way that offends a human being. dignity, shall be punished by imprisonment for up to one year. "Work in the public interest is any socially useful work that does not offend human dignity and is not done for the purpose of making a profit." This principle emphasizes that the integrity and dignity of all who may be affected by the Artificial inteligence Systemmust be taken care of at all times, As it is a general concept, to which life, in addition to the law, gives different sides although the essence is the same, it is appropriate to attach to the concept itself: honor, reputation, that is, piety.
