When we understand ethics, we become better people and help make the world a safer and
fairer place — whether we’re playing, working, learning, or building technology.
Understanding AI Ethics
Artificial Intelligence (AI) ethics can be defined as a set of values, principles, and techniques
that guide moral conduct regarding right and wrong in the development and deployment of AI
technologies.
The AI code of ethics, also known as an 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 and 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 centred AI for the greater interest of people.
United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (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

language and voice tone.
