What is the Production-Grade AI Bias Testing course about?

As organizations grow through acquisition, they inherit diverse AI models with inconsistent testing standards. Without a production-grade bias testing protocol, teams face compliance gaps, reputational exposure, and technical debt, all while under pressure to deliver unified, trustworthy AI outcomes.
