Motorola Solutions has unveiled ‘AI nutrition labels’ for its safety and security technologies, marking a pioneering move in the public safety and enterprise security sectors. These labels are designed to offer clear insights into the use of artificial intelligence (AI) within their products, detailing the type of AI used, data ownership, human oversight, and the intended purpose of the AI application.
The initiative aligns with Singapore’s national priorities of digital trust and responsible AI, addressing the gap where only 53% of organisations have robust AI governance. Mahesh Saptharishi, executive vice president and chief technology officer at Motorola Solutions, emphasised the company’s commitment to transparency, stating, “It is our unwavering conviction that technology—including AI—must be deployed with purpose and transparency to fulfil its promise as a force for good.”
These labels are part of Motorola Solutions’ broader strategy to integrate AI across its ecosystem, providing users with actionable and reliable information. The AI is designed to assist in prioritising actions and understanding complex situations, enhancing human performance when time is critical. Saptharishi noted, “AI can ingest, learn, and cross-reference data to provide contextual understanding. Our AI nutrition labels will bring added clarity to the important role AI is playing in helping to protect people, property, and places.”
The introduction of these labels is supported by the Motorola Solutions Technology Advisory Committee, which guides the company on ethical and technological implications. This move is expected to set a precedent for transparency in AI usage, fostering trust and accountability in technology-driven safety solutions.
