As artificial intelligence systems become increasingly integrated into critical societal functions, ensuring their transparency, fairness, and trustworthiness has emerged as a paramount concern for both technologists and policymakers. This paper examines the multifaceted challenges of building trustworthy AI through three key dimensions: algorithmic transparency, bias governance, and public trust establishment. We analyze current approaches to explainable AI (XAI) and their limitations in opening the algorithmic "black box," explore systematic methods for detecting and mitigating algorithmic bias across data, model, and application levels, and investigate mechanisms for building public trust through technical reliability and social acceptability. The paper proposes a collaborative governance framework that integrates multi-stakeholder participation and ethics-by-design principles. Our analysis reveals that achieving trustworthy AI requires not merely technical solutions but a comprehensive approach that combines technological innovation with robust social governance mechanisms. The findings suggest that future AI development must prioritize transparency, fairness, and accountability as foundational principles rather than afterthoughts in system design.
