By 2033, will Human-Level AI decision making be regarded as 'trustworthy'?

Dr Elise Tapping

So why is it important to the Engineering community that the AI decision making needs to be equipped with a universally accepted value system (ethically driven) and not 'something else'?

  • I'm not sure I understand the question. There seems to be an implicit assumption that AI "understands" both what it's doing and what its results would be used for - as without that how could it apply any ethical values? As far as I can tell, AI doesn;t actually understand anything it all, it merely puts things together based on probabilities and a very large example data set. It can't really make moral judgements any more than a cog wheel can.

  • From my experience of human values, I would rather an AI didn't have them.  Just look at the World news at the moment.

  • Given the diversity of ethical values across the world, is it necessary for each country to develop its own ethical framework for AI? What would be the best mechanism to determine such frameworks? Would it involve governmental, democratic, or other processes? This seems to be a highly complex issue.
