People-centered AI: ​the principles that guide us

When coupled with automation, AI can dramatically speed processes, improve decisions, and free people from an ever-wider range of repetitive tasks. But as with any powerful, transformative technology, AI must be thoughtfully managed to maximize its positive impact. We are committed to enabling the responsible and ethical application of AI + automation for UiPath, our customers, and our partners.​

Our core principles

We believe all AI + automation systems should be developed and implemented based on the following standards:​

Open

UiPath embraces an open approach, supporting both generative AI and specialized AI. The platform enables users to leverage the best-in-class models available, whether they are developed by UiPath, brought by users, or sourced from other providers. This openness allows organizations to leverage a wide range of AI capabilities and stay at the forefront of technological advancements in both generative AI and specialized AI.

Flexible

UiPath provides a flexible platform that allows the construction of workflows by combining multiple AI models, user interfaces (UI), and APIs. This flexibility enables users to create comprehensive automation solutions that leverage the strengths of various AI models. Additionally, users have the ability to fine-tune the AI models to suit their specific tasks and domains, ensuring that the automation solutions are tailored precisely to their requirements.

Responsible

UiPath prioritizes responsible AI practices, ensuring the safety and governance of AI-powered automation solutions. The UiPath Platform incorporates guardrails and governance mechanisms to make sure that AI models used in workflows are deployed responsibly and ethically. By integrating responsible AI principles, UiPath helps organizations mitigate risks associated with AI, such as privacy concerns, bias, and data security, enabling them to build trustworthy and compliant automation solutions. Our Responsible AI principles are available here.

Our goal is to help foster research

Our goal is to help foster research that leads to the next wave of transformational technologies at the intersections of automation and AI and ensure human-centered automations are deployed to establish ethical, inclusive, and accountable AI systems.”
