A Spanish tech company wants to programme AI machines with ethics

So it's a no-brainer for a company like Acuilae to try and find a solution to the dilemma we now face: who can and should bestow ethics on artificial intelligence? It's an important question, considering global finance, health systems, the justice system and much more will soon be managed by artificial intelligence -- if we're going to leave such crucial decisions in the hands of machines, we have to ensure they make the right decisions and, if possible, even fair and good ones. That's where ETHYKA comes into the picture. "Born from the desire to research and learn," according to Acuilae's CEO, Cristina Sánchez, ETHYKA is a project that looks to give AI morals so actions they perform will be based on ethical data. An expert in statistics, computer science and data science, thus far she's had a team of just four to help move the project forward and is now looking to attract investors through a funding round.
