Ethics In AI Awareness And AI Autonomous Cars - AI Trends

When referring to how workplace related awareness can make a potential difference in worker behavior, a recent study of that phenomena gained national interest. The study examined the opioid drug crisis occurring in the United States. There are many thousands of deaths each year due to opioid overdoses and an estimated nearly 2 million Americans that are addicted to opioids. According to the study, part of the reason that opioid use has vastly increased over the last two decades is as a result of prescribing opioids for pain relief and for similar purposes. Apparently, medical doctors had gotten used to prescribing opioids and did so without necessarily overtly considering the downsides of becoming possibly addicted to it.
