Ethics of Artificial Intelligence
Ethics of Artificial Intelligence
Description
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere and in many different forms, for instance intelligent assistance in mobile phones and self-driving vehicles. An increased reliance on advanced AI systems for vital societal functions gives rise to ethical questions regarding usage and management. And, the more sophisticated such systems get, the more relevant the question of their moral status becomes. Which sort of agents are artificial systems? Can they be considered moral agents and can they be ascribed moral responsibility?
