Companies report on their financial performance for decades. More recently they have also started to report on their environmental impact and their social responsibility. The latest trend is now to deliver one single integrated report where all stakeholders of the company can easily connect all facets of the business with their impact considered in a broad sense. The main purpose of this integrated approach is to avoid delivering data related to disconnected silos, which consequently makes it very difficult to globally assess the overall performance of an entity or a business line. In this paper, we focus on how companies report on risks and ethical issues related to the increasing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). We explain some of these risks and potential issues. Next, we identify some recent initiatives by various stakeholders to define a global ethical framework for AI. Finally, we illustrate with four cases that companies are very shy to report on these facets of AI.

This paper describes a system to support the visual exploration of Open Data. During his/her interactive experience with the graphics, the user can easily store the current complete state of the visualization application (called a viewpoint). Next, he/she can compose sequences of these viewpoints (called scenarios) that can easily be reloaded. This feature allows to keep traces of a former exploration process, which can be useful in single user (to support investigation carried out in multiple sessions) as well as in collaborative setting (to share points of interest identified in the data set).
