The core Quality by Design (QbD) objectives for AI system development and deployment can be summarized as:

  1. Reliability & Consistency: Ensure stable, dependable system performance QbD1: Ensure that the AI system produces consistent, reliable outputs across various real-world conditions and over time.
  2. Accuracy & Precision: Optimize for precise, relevant AI outputs QbD2: Ensure the AI system provides accurate predictions or decisions that are aligned with real-world requirements.
  3. Bias Mitigation & Fairness: Design for fairness, equity & inclusivity QbD3: Ensure that the AI system is fair, equitable and free from bias that could result in discriminatory outcomes.
  4. Ethical Alignment: Ensure the AI system aligns with ethical standards QbD4: Ensure that the AI system operates in an ethical manner, respecting societal values, human rights and legal frameworks.
  5. Transparency & Explainability: Foster trust through clear & understandable AI behavior QbD5: Design AI systems to be transparent and provide explanations for their decisions, fostering trust among stakeholders.
  6. Compliance & Regulatory Adherence: Meet all legal, regulatory & data protection standards QbD6: Ensure the AI system meets regulatory and legal requirements, such as those set by government bodies, industry standards and data protection laws.
  7. Security & Privacy: Protect data and ensure secure system operations QbD7: Safeguard the AI system against security threats and ensure the privacy of user data.
  8. Scalability & Adaptability: Build flexible, future-proof systems capable of handling growth & change QbD8: Ensure the AI system is scalable and can handle increasing loads or changing requirements over time.
  9. Usability & User-Centered Design: Prioritize user experience & accessibility QbD9: Ensure the AI system is user-friendly, intuitive and aligned with the needs of the end-users.
  10. Continuous Improvement & Monitoring: Keep systems up-to-date with continuous feedback & optimization QbD10: Establish a system of ongoing evaluation, allowing for continuous improvement throughout the AI system’s lifecycle.

By embedding these objectives into the AI development lifecycle, organizations can achieve high-quality, trustworthy and compliant AI systems that meet both technical requirements and societal expectations.
