I was reading an article on how to build an ethical AI algorithm.

I am left with the question that you should be able to also build unethical AI. And, given the examples provided, where AI was accidentally bigoted, I shudder at the thought if someone was acting on purpose. What are your thoughts on ethics in AI?

Interesting video about the need of ethics in AI, specifically face recognition. For example: China has about 1 billion people registered for face recognition, while facebook has 2.6 billion.

This is a very interesting topic. There is UK-based research center
https://ethical.institute/

that support the responsible development, deployment and operation of machine learning systems and AI.

I believe that there is a need that tech collaborate with university, governments and other stakeholders to ensure safety, responsibility and privacy when developing this tools.

As another peer mentioned, like happened with the 3D printers.

Thanks for sharing, Mayte.

The 8 principles may make sense, to me they seem a bit not simple enough.

This reminded me of the 3 and later 4 laws of Asimov regarding robots.

1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.

and adding
0. A robot may not injure humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm

The last one, numbered zero, seems to be the most important, and aligned with the principle of utility, maximising the benefits for the most.

Similar:
The hive is more important than the individual bee.
Soldiers die for their nation.
Humans will unite on an alien attack.
