Ethical frameworks for designing AI for telecom

"We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done." The journey to artificial intelligence (AI) – or the thinking machine, as it was once called – may have begun more than half a century ago, yet although many of the technological questions may have since been conquered, many bioethical questions have not. Critical questions such as'can we guarantee that new technologies will always do good and never do harm?' and'can we always ensure that they are just, fair, explainable, and accountable?' will rightly and inevitably form the centerpiece of any discussion on future AI deployment. With new breakthroughs, new questions will be asked. While these questions will always be Important, they are also part of a much broader and more holistic conversation between society and technology itself, spanning many different Industries.
