Brainy Fact
Google is using an AI model to reduce the energy used at its data centres, thereby reducing its cooling
energy costs by 40%.
Principles for Ethical AI
As Artificial Intelligence enters our workplace, unions, multinational
worker alliances in companies should take steps, to safeguard workers’
interests and maintain a healthy balance of power in workplaces.
UNI Global Union, a global union federation for the skills and services
sectors, represents national and regional trade unions from around 150
countries. UNI Global Union has specified 10 key principles for Ethical AI.
Let us learn about them.
Transparency
Consumers should have the right to demand the transparency of the decisions and results of AI systems and their
underlying algorithms. They should also be consulted when implementing, developing, and deploying artificially
intelligent systems.
AI Systems Must be Equipped with an “Ethical Encoder”
The “ethical encoder” in the AI system should include clear data on the ethical aspects built into the system.
Human-centred Values
Ethical guidelines for the development, application, and use of artificial intelligence are necessary so that the AI system
remains compatible throughout its operation. It should also abide by the principles of human dignity, integrity, freedom,
privacy, cultural and gender diversity, and basic human rights.
Take an Individual-in-Control Approach
AI machines are given the legal status of tools, and people hold control over, and accountability for these machines at
all times.
Safeguard a Genderless, Unbiased AI
In the development and maintenance of AI, the system must be controlled against harmful human prejudices, and any
prejudice—whether it is gender, race, sexual orientation, or age—should be systematically recognized and checked, not
spread further by the AI system.
Sharing the Benefits of AI Systems
The economic prosperity created by artificial intelligence should be widely and evenly distributed to all mankind.
Therefore, global and national measures are needed to bridge the economic, technological, and social digital divide.
Ensure a just Transition and Support for Fundamental Freedoms and Rights
With the development of AI systems and the emergence of augmented reality, workers and work tasks will get displaced.
It is essential to formulate policies to ensure a just transition to digital reality, including specific government measures
to help unemployed workers find new jobs.
