Ethics of Artificial Intelligence
Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg
GenEd: DSSP, SCIS
What ethical considerations should govern the creation, distribution, and use of artificial intelligence innovations in industry, polity, and society in the future? New and emerging innovations in artificial intelligence (AI) are disrupting sectors as diverse as healthcare, medicine, finance, operations, supply chain, manufacturing, media and journalism, and the creative industries. In the near future, the dependence of humans on AI for a myriad of social activities including companionship and care is also expected to accelerate. This course deals with the question of how we should ensure AI will create ethical economic and social systems that reflect the kind of world we want to live in 20 to 30 years from now. The values and ethics of society will influence and govern how AI can either contribute to humanity or lead to a dystrophic future.
