Realistic and Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence

About this book

Current perspectives on artificial intelligence (AI) tend to focus on the wide parameters between fear and hope. Realistic and Ethical Use of Artificial Intelligence provides some (ethical) hope with realistic solutions. It deals with the complexities of AI, unpacking specific challenges presented by the AI problem and suggesting what we do about them.

This book is written by an experienced researcher and a young innovator, with expert reflections from researchers and practitioners. It promotes community-focused, collective values and ethical uses of AI, and it challenges ideologies based on capitalist modes of consumption, privilege and exploitation. Chapters explain current understandings of AI, how it has developed since its inception and the various types of AI. The text explores issues such as scraping of data, privacy, unethical corporate practices, trust and AI abuse, as well as outlining the potential environmental, social and psychological impact of AI – for better and for worse. Discussions across this book are underpinned by both research and media perspectives that introduce concerns and offer suggestions and explanations about ways to use AI in realistic and ethical ways.

This up-to-date text is ideal for anyone looking for a deeper understanding of what counts as AI, the moral questions troubling both researchers and the general public and how AI can be a fantastic tool if built and used ethically.
