How might Al systems reduce power imbalances

Reference no: EM133570480

Description

A Hypothetical scenario:

You have been invited to participate on a panel on Al ethics at a major technology and ideas festival in Sydney.

The brief: Choose 1 of the following (a or b) as a starting point:

a) How might we imagine Al Ethics outside of its current parochial framings?

b) How might Al systems reduce power imbalances? ... and consider how he contemporary debate on artificially intelligent systems are dominated by evangelists (cheerleaders for Al) and hyper-critics. It is rarely balanced with alternative, pragmatic imaginations of what this technology can, might, and can't (yet) do.

This session will explore how "lateral thinking" about Al's risks and opportunities can provide urgently needed counter-narratives of the data-
driven future that is envisioned for us by supporters and critics.

Guided by a mindset that seeks to de-centre the concerns of cosmopolitan-urban, financially secure, able-bodied, colonial, and other categorically archetypal user-bases, we hope to offer the audience practical ways to understand how we might acknowledge the overlooked but sharply felt idiosyncrasies, inequalities and power imbalances embedded in artificially intelligent systems. How can we use Al ethics as an instrument to ensure Al systems do not contribute to such power imbalances, but rather to empower the marginalised?

Prepare the script for a 10-15min "talk" for this event drawing from your experience of studying Al ethics. Your response will need to include a) a specific example of technology being used (i.e., a company and a product or prototype) that has not been discussed in the readings and b) it should end with 5 points or principles that amount to your personal code of technology ethics.

Some prompts to help your thinking and feel free to add some of your own:

Al should have dynamic consent baked into its design?
How might we report and document the adverse events of Al?
Should the developers and deployers of Al declare its machine nature? (i.e., is it ethical to personify Al systems)?
