AI in Commercial Space & Aviation

What if the most critical AI safety feature isn’t in the code—but in the way we explain it? Vera Grbic, MIT’s communications officer at the Institute Discrimination and Harassment Response Office (IDHR), has spent years translating complex AI policies into accessible, trustworthy public-facing materials—starting in 2021. Her work on the IDHR Data Dashboard and website redesign shows how clarity in communication is foundational to ethical AI deployment. In high-stakes environments like commercial space and aviation, where decisions impact lives and regulatory oversight is intense, miscommunication is a risk multiplier. Grbic’s approach—making policies and processes visible, consistent, and understandable—offers a model for how AI systems can be governed not just by algorithms, but by human-centered transparency. The lesson? Trust isn’t assumed—it’s built through deliberate, fact-based communication.
