Between Ethics And Laws, Who Can Govern Artificial Intelligence Systems? - AI Magazine

We all started to realize that the rapid development of AI was really going to change the world we live in. AI is no longer just a branch of computer science, it has escaped from research labs with the development of "AI systems", "software that, for human-defined purposes, generates content, predictions, recommendations or decisions influencing the environments with which they interact" (european union definition). The issues of governance of these AI systems – with all the nuances of ethics, control, regulation and regulation – have become crucial, as their development today is in the hands of a few digital empires like them Gafa-Natu-Batx… who have become the masters of real societal choices on automation and on the "rationalization" of the world. The complex fabric intersecting AI, ethics and law is then built in power relations – and connivance – between states and tech giants. But the commitment of citizens becomes necessary, to assert other imperatives than a solutionism technology where "everything that can be connected will be connected and streamlined".
