Artificial Intelligence: Ethics in Practice

This article describes key ethical challenges associated with the design, process, use, and impacts of artificial intelligence. We go beyond naming the problems that have garnered significant attention in recent years, and additionally reference several ongoing efforts to mitigate and manage key ethical concerns. This article is part of a series about ethics intended to encourage ongoing discussion and debate in the research community about ethical considerations that may arise in the course of networking, security, and systems research. We hope that this article will result in researchers as well as industry practitioners being more mindful in their design and use of AI systems.
