                      Artificial Intelligence (AI) is used in many areas of life. It helps with things like navigation apps,
                      predicting  the weather  and even diagnosing  diseases.  But  here's an important  question:  just
                      because AI can make decisions, should it make all the decisions?

                      Technology is powerful, but when AI is used to make decisions in important areas like hiring people
                      for jobs, healthcare, banking, education or security, it needs to be guided by rules to make sure
                      it’s fair and safe. AI isn’t just a machine; it’s part of a system that can affect people's lives. That’s
                      why it must follow rules to make sure it works responsibly.

                      UNDERSTANDING ETHICS IN AI

                      Ethics refers to  the  rules or guidelines  that  help us make  decisions  that  are right, fair and
                      responsible.  Ethics  helps  you  make  good  choices in  your  everyday  life. When it  comes  to  AI
                      (Artificial Intelligence), AI ethics is about ensuring that AI systems are designed and used in ways
                      that benefit people and society without causing harm. It makes sure AI works in a way that is:

                       Fair: This means treating everyone equally, without
                         any bias or discrimination. For example, imagine an AI
                         system in school that picks students for a scholarship.
                         If the AI is trained using data that favours one gender
                         or race, it would be unfair. Ethical AI ensures that the
                         system chooses students based on their abilities, not
                         their gender or background.

                       Transparent: AI should make decisions in ways that
                         are  clear and  easy  to  understand.  Think about  an
                         AI system in an online shopping app that recommends products. If you know why the app
                         suggests certain items (like because you liked similar products before), it builds trust. Ethical
                         AI ensures that the decisions made by the system are easy to follow.
