Editorial, The Guardian; The Guardian view on the ethics of AI: it’s about Dr Frankenstein, not his monster
"But in all these cases, the companies involved – which means the people
who work for them – will be actively involved in maintaining, tweaking
and improving the work. This opens an opportunity for consistent ethical
pressure and for the attribution of responsibility to human beings and
not to inanimate objects. Questions about the ethics of artificial
intelligence are questions about the ethics of the people who make it
and the purposes they put it to. It is not the monster, but the good Dr
Frankenstein we need to worry about most."
Issues and developments related to ethics, information, and technologies, examined in the ethics and intellectual property graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. My Bloomsbury book "Ethics, Information, and Technology" will be published in Summer 2025. Kip Currier, PhD, JD
