AI - ETHICS

INTRODUCTION TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE


AI (417)
What is AI?
 Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the branch of computer
science that aims to create systems capable of performing
tasks that would typically require human intelligence.
 These tasks include learning from experience, interpreting
complex data, making decisions, understanding natural
language, and recognizing patterns.
 AI systems are designed to mimic or replicate human
cognitive functions, often using algorithms and data to
solve problems independently or enhance human decision-
making.
What is AI Ethics?
 AI ethics refers to the principles and guidelines that help
ensure that the development and use of artificial
intelligence technologies promote societal well-being,
safety, fairness, and respect for human rights.
 AI ethics emphasizes the importance of privacy and
security, ensuring that AI technologies safeguard
personal information and are protected against misuse
and breaches.
Core Principles of AI Ethics
 Transparency: Everyone should be able to understand AI

decisions.

 Justice & Fairness: AI should avoid bias and ensure equity.

 Non-maleficence: AI should not harm users or society.

 Responsibility: Accountability for AI decisions and outcomes.

 Privacy: Safeguarding personal data processed by AI.


Example 1: AI in recruitment and bias
prevention.
 Purpose of AI in Recruitment: Enhances speed and efficiency by

automating the selection process.

 Potential for Bias: AI can replicate or amplify existing biases if not

carefully monitored.

 Bias Prevention Measures:

 Use of diverse training datasets.


 Regular audits to identify and correct biases in algorithms.

 Key Benefit: Improves fairness and objectivity in hiring decisions when

properly implemented.

technology?
 The role of ethical AI in sustainable development.
 Engaging the public in ethical AI discussions.
AI - BIAS
 AI bias refers to the unintentional
discrimination or skewed outcomes in AI
systems due to biased data, flawed algorithms,
or improper model training.
Causes of Bias
 Biased Data: AI systems learn from historical data,
which may reflect societal biases.
 Algorithmic Bias: Flawed algorithms can perpetuate
or amplify biases present in the data.
 Model Training: Improper training techniques or
biased labelling of data can introduce bias into AI
models.
Types of Bias
 Sample Bias: When the training data does not
represent the entire population, leading to skewed
results.
 Selection Bias: Occurs when certain groups or
characteristics are overrepresented or
underrepresented in the data.
 Confirmation Bias: AI systems may reinforce
existing biases by favoring information that confirms
preconceived notions.
Impact of BIAS
 Social Injustice: Biased AI can perpetuate
discrimination based on race, gender, or other
attributes.
 Economic Consequences: Unfair AI decisions can
impact job opportunities, lending practices, and
resource allocation.
 Loss of Trust: Bias erodes trust in AI systems and
can lead to skepticism about their fairness and
reliability.
Ethical Considerations in AI
Bias
 Fairness: Ethical AI frameworks emphasize the
importance of fairness and impartiality in AI decision-
making.
 Accountability: Developers and users of AI systems
are accountable for addressing and mitigating bias.
 Transparency: Transparent AI processes help
identify and correct bias, promoting trust and
accountability.
AI ACCESS
 AI access refers to the availability and accessibility of
AI tools, platforms, and resources for developers,
researchers, and organizations.
 It includes access to AI software libraries,
development frameworks, and cloud-based AI
services.
Data Access
 AI systems require access to data for training, testing, and
validation.
 Data access involves acquiring and accessing diverse,
representative datasets that are necessary for training AI
models effectively.
Ethical Considerations in AI
Access
 Access to AI technologies raises ethical
considerations related to fairness, bias, privacy, and
accountability.
 Ensuring equitable access to AI tools and resources
while addressing ethical concerns is crucial for
responsible AI development and deployment.
