Siyasat: AI-Powered AI Governance Tool to Generate and Improve AI Policies According to Saudi AI Ethics Principles

The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and growing reliance on generative AI (GenAI) tools such as ChatGPT and Bing Chat have raised concerns about risks, including privacy violations, bias, and discrimination. AI governance is viewed as a solution, and in Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) has introduced the AI Ethics Principles. However, many organizations face challenges in aligning their AI policies with these principles. This paper presents Siyasat, an Arabic web-based governance tool designed to generate and enhance AI policies based on SDAIA’s AI Ethics Principles. Powered by GPT-4-turbo and a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) approach, the tool uses a dataset of ten AI policies and SDAIA’s official ethics document. The results show that Siyasat achieved a BERTScore of 0.890 and Self-BLEU of 0.871 in generating AI policies, while in improving AI policies, it scored 0.870 and 0.980, showing strong consistency and quality. The paper contributes a practical solution to support public, private, and non-profit sectors in complying with Saudi Arabia’s AI Ethics Principles.
