Keeping an Eye on AI: Building Ethical Technology at Salesforce
Kathy Baxter, the architect of the ethical AI practice at Salesforce, is helping her team and clients create more responsible technology. To do so, she supports employee education, the inclusion of safeguards in Salesforce technology, and collaboration with other companies to improve ethical AI across industries.
Baxter spoke with AI Podcast host Noah Kravitz about her role at the company, a position she helped create as the need for AI ethicists became apparent.
She’s helped construct practices such as release readiness planning, in which teams brainstorm any potential unintended negative consequences, along with ways to mitigate them.
In the future, Baxter predicts more global policies that will help companies define ethical AI and guide them in creating responsible technology.

One of its functions is to alert users when they might be using sensitive variables such as age, race or gender. Administrators can also select the variables they don’t want to include in their model, to avoid accidental bias.
