Empathy is essential for technology to serve our emotions, but we recognize that empathic AI also poses risks. It will need to be equitable and unbiased, privacy-preserving, transparent, and accountable to our stated goals, among other ethical imperatives.

To chart an ethical path for AI with empathy, Hume AI adheres to the recommendations of a separate non-profit: 



The Hume Initiative.

The Hume Initiative

Brings together experts in AI research, social science, ethics, and law to establish guidelines for the use of empathic technology. Compliance with these guidelines is a requirement when using Hume AI’s data and models.

The Guidelines

We are establishing guidelines and best practices for the use of technology that understands human emotion.
