# OECD AI Principles

The five values-based principles (inclusive growth and well-being; human rights, fairness and privacy; transparency and explainability; robustness, security and safety; accountability) and five policy recommendations of the OECD Recommendation on AI, adopted in 2019 and revised in 2024 [1]. A commitment by adhering governments, not a binding rule for companies.
