Holding "AI for Good" Accountable

AI for good is a well-intentioned space with an accountability problem: claims that go unproven, dependence on a handful of companies, communities with no say over the tools — or the data — deployed on them, and impact tracked in vanity metrics. The Kaleidoscope Project works on exactly that — diligence, community governance, reinvestment, and open education.

How we work

Diligence

Evidence-based assessment of AI investments for philanthropies, using the Net Effect framework. Gains and harms measured where tools are actually deployed — before more capital follows. Real funding decisions, not demos.
