AI0-001 AI Concepts and Foundations Practice Question
A team is deploying an AI model for credit approval. Which TWO ethical considerations must be addressed?
⚠ Common exam trap
CompTIA often tests the distinction between ethical requirements (interpretability, fairness) and technical performance metrics (accuracy, speed, size), leading candidates to mistakenly select accuracy as an ethical consideration.
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Model interpretability
Model interpretability (B) is essential for credit approval because financial decisions must be explainable to regulators and customers under laws like GDPR or ECOA. A black-box model that cannot justify why a loan was denied violates compliance requirements, making interpretability a core ethical and legal necessity.
