#12Cool, but I question the association with nutrition labels. Those have a specific, regulated purpose and this AI checklist doesn't. Is the nutrition label association supposed to subtly associate to some authenticity?
May be inspired by Apple's privacy labels

Exactly -- there's a reason this is coming from a billion dollar SV company.

There's a metaphoric idea of feeding a model

#17Similar concept: AI FactSheets [0]
"The goal of the FactSheet project is to foster trust in AI by increasing transparency an increased understanding of how AI was created and deployed and enabling governance the ability to control how AI is created and deployed. Increased transparency provides information for AI consumers to better understand how the AI model a program component that is generated by learning patterns in training data to make predictions on new data, such as a loan application. or service an executable program, deployed behind an API, that allows it to respond to program requests from other programs or services* was created. This allows a consumer of the model to determine if it is appropriate for their situation."

#18This is a nice concise format to display model cards (https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.03993). I like the style and the "standard". But, I do agree with other commenters that the 'nutrition' term is probably inappropriate. We get the style from the card - you don't need to carry the analogy any further.

#19As a consumer, I couldn't care less. As a software developer who interfaces with Twilio API from time to time, sure, okay I get it. It makes the pitch easier to whoever needs to sign off on the project that requires an AI service. I do feel like the nutrition label metaphor is a bit _much_, however.
"As a software developer who interfaces with Twilio API from time to time ..."
As a developer - and sysadmin - who interfaces with the Twilio APIs hundreds of times per day for both personal and business use I wonder why they can't just be a boring telco infra company and continue to improve upon the simple building blocks that aren't spam tools.
Here's a very specific suggestion:

... that I have made ~20 times over the years - sometimes in person at Signal - that has never been acted on.
The first time I heard "customer engagement at scale" I knew pain was coming.

Yes, IMO. It’s supposed to be aspirational, I think — perhaps prompting the thought “if the government regulates what I eat, and I like that, maybe the government should regulate the software that controls my life…”
