Responsible Artificial Intelligence (eBook, PDF)

How to Develop and Use AI in a Responsible Way

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, the author examines the ethical implications of Artificial Intelligence systems as they integrate and replace traditional social structures in new sociocognitive-technological environments. She discusses issues related to the integrity of researchers, technologists, and manufacturers as they design, construct, use, and manage artificially intelligent systems; formalisms for reasoning about moral decisions as part of the behavior of artificial autonomous systems such as agents and robots; and design methodologies for social agents based on societal, moral, and legal values.

Throughout the book the author discusses related work, conscious of both classical, philosophical treatments of ethical issues and the implications in modern, algorithmic systems, and she combines regular references and footnotes with suggestions for further reading. This short overview is suitable for undergraduate students, in both technical and non-technical courses, and for interested and concerned researchers, practitioners, and citizens.

Rezensionen

"The book claims to be suitable for undergraduate students, and interested and concerned researchers, practitioners, and citizens. It will serve these audiences well but would be of equal benefit and importance to policymakers and those making decisions about adopting AI technology who might otherwise be focused on a narrower functional perspective. ... Highly recommended for all." (Nicolas E. Gold, Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines, Vol. 22, 2021)

"Responsible Artificial Intelligence is a valuable contribution to the debate about AI ... at the level of building principled, responsible AI systems, and the use of these systems. The further reading which the book suggests complements this technical monograph with accessible contributions about the nature and future of AI. ... If you want to know how a vision for responsible AI systems in the European fashion can be built from values, read this book." (Neil Yorke-Smith, Prometheus, September, 2020)
