Your AI may not be ethical. Here's what to do

The people you manage may not be ethical and you therefore need guardrails to protect yourself and your organization. But the same is true of the machines you manage – the apps and algorithms of artificial intelligence that act on your behalf. That's harder to get your head around and probably trickier to control. "When it comes to AI, there are loads of ethical risks that need mitigating," consultant Reid Blackman writes in Ethical Machines. He points to an Uber self-driving car that killed a woman, the investigation of Goldman Sachs for creating AI that set credit card limits lower for women than men, and Amazon abandoning its resume-reading AI after two years because the company couldn't figure out how to stop it from discriminating against women.
