About Discarded.AI
Discarded.AI explores how AI safety, governance and ethics actually work inside institutions.
It looks beyond the headlines and frameworks to the real systems, compromises and trade-offs that shape responsible technology in practice.
This publication is written by Alan Robertson, a practitioner in Responsible AI and regulatory risk. His work spans the development of governance frameworks, audit controls and strategy across global financial services.
He writes from the inside where regulation, assurance and innovation collide and from the belief that truth still matters, even when systems become intelligent.
Discarded.AI is also for people who want to find a way into the field.
It shares the lessons, resources and perspectives that help new voices gain confidence in AI safety and ethics, whatever their background.
