A Systematic Exercise Tool Helps Researchers Ponder the Ethical Implications of AI

In addition to many clear benefits, AI technology can also bring risks related to the misuse of technology and for example increased inequalities. There is thus an increased demand to apply the principles of human-centricity and ethics in the development of AI. Members of the Ethics Advisory Board of the Finnish Centre for Artificial Intelligence (FCAI) have developed an Ethics Exercise Tool to help AI researchers consider and discuss the ethical implications of their research and strengthen ethical understanding within their team.
