By adhering to this pledge, I commit to fostering AI that is ethical, transparent, and respectful of human rights, society, and the environment. I understand that I will be held accountable through friendly messages to encourage growth and change across the AI spectrum. If that should fail, then, I understand that a more public acknowledgement of challenges and correction will be made.
