Making Artificial Intelligence Ethical

The rapid progress of artificial intelligence (AI) is occurring on many different fronts. It is now in our living rooms, cars and even in our pockets. As an ubiquitous technology, its applications and uses will increasingly extend into the everyday aspects of our lives and society at large. It promises to help solve global challenges like climate change, making driving safer, transform wildlife conservation and provide us with access to quality medical care. While private and public sectors experiment with AI, complex social, ethical, legal and political questions emerge around AI bias, privacy, "blackbox AI" and the use of lethal autonomous weapons.
