SOLUTIONS > AI TECHNOLOGY DUE DILIGENCE
Identification of the hidden risks and opportunities that stem from the AI technology itself is an imperative in performing a complete Due Diligence of an AI company or system.
These risks:
– cannot be assessed through any other type of analysis and method
– require expert tooling & knowledge
– may have significant impact on the investment value
The data-driven analysis of PyThia in combination with the expertise of our AI engineers and advisors help us identify the hidden AI-related risks and opportunities for a given investment.
PyThia, our own proprietary AI-testing platform, enables the analysis of any type of data and AI models based on the ISO 29119-11 international standard for testing AI-based systems.
We dig deep into the AI model and the data it utilizes in order to provide a comprehensive overview of all relevant aspects of an AI system, so that our clients can understand what’s going on in the AI model/algorithm itself. Our analysis focuses on:
  • Quality: What is the system’s performance and how it is being measured?
  • Trustworthiness
    • Bias Testing: Are there any unwanted patterns in the data or the model being used?
    • Explainability Analysis: The provision of explanations on how the system’s decisions are being derived
  • Security: Testing the level of Robustness of the target system.
Based on these results, as well as our clients’ own business context, our advisors develop a full AI risk profile and actionable, prioritized recommendations to ensure their objectives stay on track.
Features
