Montreal Declaration for Responsible AI: 10 Principles and 59 Recommendations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The “Montreal Forum on the Socially Responsible Development of Artificial Intelligence” was a conference that began in November 2017, where more than 400 participants from various sectors and disciplines discussed the ethical and social implications of AI. The conference also led to the creation of the “Montreal Declaration for the Responsible Development of Artificial Intelligence” which was released in late 2018 with more than 500 signatories. The declaration outlines 10 principles and 59 recommendations to guide the development of AI in a way that respects human dignity, autonomy, justice, and democracy. Montreal's AI ethics principles have also been criticized. For example, it is argued that it does not cover the potential malicious use of AI for activities such as warfare, surveillance, or personalized propaganda, and does not offer specific guidance or mechanisms for its application and enforcement. Either way, it is considered an important step in the development of AI ethics and has been widely recognized for its global and integrative approach, and as a reference point for subsequent efforts.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
