Infosys has launched an open-source Responsible AI Toolkit. This component of the Infosys Topaz Responsible AI Suite is designed to help enterprises innovate responsibly while addressing the challenges and risks associated with ethical AI adoption.
The Infosys Responsible AI Toolkit builds on the Infosys AI3S framework (Scan, Shield, and Steer), equipping enterprises with advanced defensive technical guardrails, including specialised AI models and shielding algorithms, to detect and mitigate issues such as privacy breaches, security attacks, sensitive information leakages, biased output, harmful content, copyright infringement, hallucinations, malicious use, deepfakes and more.
The toolkit also enhances model transparency by providing insights into the rationale behind AI-generated output without compromising on performance or user experience. The open-source toolkit offers flexibility and ease of implementation. It is fully customisable, compatible with diverse models and agentic AI systems, and integrates seamlessly across cloud and on-premise environments. Organisations can access the toolkit here.
Balakrishna D. R. (Bali), Executive Vice President, Global Services Head, AI and Industry Verticals, Infosys, said, "As AI becomes central to driving enterprise growth, its ethical adoption is no longer optional. The Infosys Responsible AI Toolkit ensures that businesses remain resilient and trustworthy while navigating the AI revolution. By making the toolkit open source, we are fostering a collaborative ecosystem that addresses the complex challenges of AI bias, opacity, and security. It's a testament to our commitment to making AI safe, reliable, and ethical for all."
Joshua Bamford, Head of Science, Technology and Innovation, British High Commission, added: "Infosys' commitment to becoming an AI-first business and establishing the Responsible AI Office reflects bold innovation and ethical leadership. By going open source, Infosys is empowering enterprises, startups and SMEs to leverage AI for groundbreaking advancements. Their Responsible AI Toolkit is a benchmark for technological excellence and when paired with a commitment to responsible practices and global sustainability can be an inspiring model for companies worldwide."
Infosys reaffirmed its commitment to ethical AI last year, with the launch of the Responsible AI Office, and dedicated offerings. It is one of the first companies to receive the ISO 42001:2023 certification on AI management systems and become part of the global dialogue on Responsible AI through membership in industry bodies and government initiatives such as NIST AI Safety Institute Consortium, WEF AIGA and C2PA, AI Alliance, UK FCDO, Stanford HAI, to name a few.
