AWS Audit Manager extends generative AI best practices framework to Amazon SageMaker
Sometimes I hear from tech leads that they would like to improve visibility and governance over their generative artificial intelligence applications. How do you monitor and govern the usage and generation of data to address issues regarding security, resilience, privacy, and accuracy or to validate against best practices of responsible AI, among other things? Beyond simply taking these into account during the implementation phase, how do you maintain long-term observability and carry out compliance checks throughout the software’s lifecycle? Today, we are launching an update to the AWS Audit Manager generative AI best practice framework on AWS Audit Manager. This framework simplifies evidence collection and enables you to continually audit and monitor the compliance posture of your generative AI workloads…
