Role of Ethics in Artificial Intelligence

This paper provides detailed understanding about the role of ethics in artificial intelligence. The author will be dealing with the given title by dividing it into two branches: roboethics and machine ethics along with their moral values and role in technology. In the roboethics section, the author clearly explains about the characteristics and behaviour of a robot and the problems caused by it and how it poses as a threat to human beings. In the second part, the author differentiates between roboethics and machine ethics. Machine ethics only refers to computed machine which are designed by humans and their moral behaviour. Moreover, the author has discussed in detail about societal moral values of artificial intelligence and how it tends to threaten human and future technology in terms of philosophy and law. Only moral values and the ethics behind the technology governing the artificial intelligence exists in the present and there is no law to formally punish crimes that deals with AI. To revolutionise the current scenario, the author widely takes the topic into several dimensions regarding governance and other ethical aspects of artificial intelligence. One way to overcome the difficulty in governing artificial intelligence, as suggested by the author, is to obtain patents for the inventions and eventually this would fall under the category of intellectual property rights. Many countries like the UK, USA and Japan have proposed to include artificial intelligence under intellectual property and this process is in progression. Few other countries are at the developing stages for devising laws that concern artificial intelligence, because this branch of engineering is an emerging one. By moving on to the second part of this paper, the author describes AI' influence on human race. The super intelligent machines created by a human may put an end to another human' life. Next comes the issue of employment disability which will be illustrated elaborately. This paper concludes by reviewing both positive and negative aspects concerning AI: how it aids in improving technology and bringing a developed society and how it steals jobs that employed humans and the danger it causes Rishikesh R"Role of Ethics in Artificial Intelligence" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-2 | Issue-5 , August 2018, URL: http://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd17135.pdf http://www.ijtsrd.com/engineering/computer-engineering/17135/role-of-ethics-in-artificial-intelligence/rishikesh-r
