HCM Deck's Ethical Approach to AI Deployment

Guidelines for the ethical use of AI, which we developed at HCM Deck in a consultative manner, regulate and support both the work of our teams and the development of AI-driven functionalities in our L&D platform – all in order to better and responsibly maximize the growth potential of employees and their impact on the business.

We understand that artificial intelligence, as an evolving transformational technology, brings both tremendous opportunities and significant challenges in terms of ethics, safety, and accountability. As an organization developing AI-driven product functionalities, we are committed to using this technology responsibly – in line with our company’s mission and values, and above all, in compliance with the relevant regulatory Responsible AI Risk Frameworks including EU AI Act.
