What It Takes To Create And Implement Ethical Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence "acts" unethically in ways that are different from humans, even if the harms that both AI and humans can cause are similar. For example, even if both humans and AI can invade people's privacy, discriminate, or cause physical harm, artificial intelligence does not act with intention to cause such harm. Rather, the harm results from how artificial intelligence collects and processes data. Currently, artificial intelligence cannot achieve consciousness, though one Google engineer disagrees. Today, the type of artificial intelligence that companies are creating and incorporating into their operations and decision systems is artificial narrow intelligence, which refers to a computer's ability to perform a single task or limited tasks extremely well.
