AI is also behind self-driving cars, predictive policing, and autonomous weapons that can kill without human intervention. These and other AI applications raise complex ethical issues that are the subject of ongoing debate. This volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series offers an accessible synthesis of these issues. Written by a philosopher of technology, \u003ci\u003eAI Ethics\u003c\/i\u003e goes beyond the usual hype and nightmare scenarios to address concrete questions.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Mark Coeckelbergh describes influential AI narratives, ranging from Frankenstein’s monster to transhumanism and the technological singularity. He surveys relevant philosophical discussions: questions about the fundamental differences between humans and machines and debates over the moral status of AI. He explains the technology of AI, describing different approaches and focusing on machine learning and data science. He offers an overview of important ethical issues, including privacy concerns, responsibility and the delegation of decision making, transparency, and bias as it arises at all stages of data science processes. He also considers the future of work in an AI economy. Finally, he analyzes a range of policy proposals and discusses challenges for policymakers. He argues for ethical practices that embed values in design, translate democratic values into practices and include a vision of the good life and the good society.Series Foreword ix\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments xi\u003cbr\u003e1 Mirror, Mirror, on the Wall 1\u003cbr\u003e2 Superintelligence, Monsters, and the AI Apocalypse 11\u003cbr\u003e3 All about the Human 31\u003cbr\u003e4 Just Machines? 47\u003cbr\u003e5 The Technology 63\u003cbr\u003e6 Don't Forget the Data (Science) 83\u003cbr\u003e7 Privacy and the Other Usual Suspects 97\u003cbr\u003e8 A-responsible Machines and Unexplainable Decisions 109\u003cbr\u003e9 Bias and the Meaning of Life 125\u003cbr\u003e10 Policy Proposals 145\u003cbr\u003e11 Challenges for Policymakers 167\u003cbr\u003e12 It's the Climate, Stupid!
