Overview

In an era characterised by the remarkable growth of AI, there emerges a profound ethical dimension that demands our attention.

This book presents a timely and significant addition to the ongoing discourse around the ethical implications of AI in general, as well as the new and disruptive AI technologies, such as generative AI platforms like ChatGPT.

 

This book discusses:

 

  • Digital technology disruption and AI;
  • An overview of AI and generative AI;
  • The role of AI and generative AI in misinformation and disinformation;
  • AI and online disinhibition;
  • How AI bias can occur;
  • AI and job displacement;
  • AI privacy issues; and
  • AI regulation and policy.

This book is a philosophical approach to the AI world, so it is of use to anyone curious about the moral issues surrounding advancements in AI, and not only for those who have a background in AI.

The future of AI is not predetermined. It is shaped by our choices, our ethics and our commitment to a world where technology enhances our lives while respecting our shared humanity.
