AI Audit Credibility Hinges on Independent Testing, Researcher Says

AI audits linked to a White House accord need to give reviewers the freedom to decide what to examine, Samuel Vance-Law argues in a CoinDesk commentary.

Vance-Law, head of research at the Decentralization Research Center, questions the value of oversight when auditors can assess only material selected for them.

His argument centers on the scope of independent review: for audits to provide meaningful scrutiny, technology companies should not be the sole gatekeepers of what gets tested.
