Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) ethics is a hotly debated subject. Increasingly, both service providers and users face ethical dilemmas. To ensure that the development, deployment, and usage of AI are all morally permissible, various initiatives have been launched. For the most part, it's not clear how AI-enabled businesses deal with these ethical challenges. Our paper identified four main ethical issues of AI (i.e. “Ubiquitous surveillance, social engineering, transhumanism, machine learning issues, and metaphysical issues”). It also identified two main mitigation strategies (i.e. “Policy-level mitigation, corporate governance of AI ethics”). Many people, including those working in AI-related organisations and academia can benefit from these findings, but policymakers grappling with how to best handle ethical concerns generated by AI may find them most useful.
