A Gentle Introduction to AI Ethics (25/11, 09:20 - 10:05)

Abstract: As the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) and its widespread applications, AI ethics has become an increasingly important interdisciplinary research area. This talk first gives a brief overview of AI ethics, starting from the basic concepts of ethics, applied ethics, technology ethics, information ethics to AI ethics, to the current status of the AI ethics research. We consider current AI ethics research from three levels, i.e., at the individual, societal (group) and environmental levels. Some of the major research topics in AI ethics are highlighted, especially for computer scientists and engineers. As a specific research topic in AI ethics, this talk then present a case study of using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms for fair machine learning. It is argued that fairness cannot be measured by any single metric. A multi-objective approach is needed. Multi-objective learning offers a natural approach to achieve fairer machine learning, i.e., constructing fairer machine learning models.
