- Other groups have created codes that address the intent of the person in creating their work product. These often proclaim to be professional, but lack any enforcement whatsoever. For example this extract from the ACM Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.
Computing professionals are in a position of trust, and therefore have a special responsibility to provide objective, credible evaluations and testimony to employers, employees, clients, users, and the public. Computing professionals should strive to be perceptive, thorough, and objective when evaluating, recommending, and presenting system descriptions and alternatives. Extraordinary care should be taken to identify and mitigate potential risks in machine learning systems. A system for which future risks cannot be reliably predicted requires frequent reassessment of risk as the system evolves in use, or it should not be deployed. Any issues that might result in major risk must be reported to appropriate parties.
Solutions
This is a list of some of the codes listed by their intended audience.
