ECHO: A Participatory Framework for Bias-Anchored AI Harm Anticipation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2512.03068v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems increasingly shape consequential decisions, creating value but also potential harms for individuals, social groups, and society. This has prompted calls for proactive approaches that anticipate harms early in the AI lifecycle. Although prior research identifies AI biases as sources of harm, the associations between particular lifecycle biases and harms remain insufficiently understood. We introduce \texttt{ECHO}, a systematic, context-sensitive, and participatory framework that anchors early harm anticipation in lifecycle biases and elicits their perceived associations with potential harms.\texttt{ECHO} identifies domain-specific stakeholders, instantiates biases through vignettes, collects harm
