Understanding AI Ethics

                 Artificial Intelligence Ethics can be defined as a set of values, principles and techniques which
                 can be applied in the development and deployment of Artificial Intelligence technologies to

                 guide the moral conduct of a machine towards right and wrong.
                 The AI code of ethics also called the AI value platform is a policy statement that defines the
                 role of Artificial Intelligence.


                         Need of AI Ethics


                 The need of AI Ethics is to define ownership. It also involves the moral behaviour of humans
                 as  they  design,  create,  use  and  treat  artificially  intelligent  systems.  We  need  national  and
                 international regulatory frameworks to ensure that AI benefits humanity as a whole. We need
                 to develop human-centered AI for the greater interest of people.

                 UNESCO proposes the development of a comprehensive global standard-setting instrument to
                 provide AI with a strong ethical basis that will not only protect but also promote human rights

                 and human dignity. If adopted, it will be an ethical guiding compass and a global normative
                 bedrock allowing to build a strong respect for the rule of law in the digital world.




                                Brainy Fact


                    A robot built in the late 1990s called Kismet could recognise emotions through human body
                    language and voice tone.




                         Ethical Issues with AI

                 Let us now understand different ethical issues related to AI.


                 Unemployment

                 Will  AI  replace  human  workers?  The  fact
                 remains that the jobs once done by humans
                 are now done by machines much more
                 efficiently and cost effectively. It is clear that

                 the development of AI would replace some
                 jobs completely from the market. This has
                 always been the case with the invention of
                 a new technology, for example, typewriters

                 were replaced by the invention of computers, taxis replaced manual rickshaws.
