The widespread use of artificial intelligence (AI) in many domains has revealed numerous ethical issues from data and design to deployment. In response, countless broad principles and guidelines for ethical AI have been published, and following those, specific approaches have been proposed for how to encourage ethical outcomes of AI. Meanwhile, library and information services too are seeing an increase in the use of AI-powered and machine learning-powered information systems, but no practical guidance currently exists for libraries to plan for, evaluate, or audit the ethics of intended or deployed AI. We therefore report on several promising approaches for promoting ethical AI that can be adapted from other contexts to AI-powered information services and in different stages of the software lifecycle.
翻译:在许多领域广泛使用人工智能(AI)揭示了从数据和设计到部署的众多伦理问题,作为回应,公布了无数关于伦理人工智能的广泛原则和准则,并随后就如何鼓励AI的道德成果提出了具体办法。与此同时,图书馆和信息服务也看到使用AI动力和机器学习动力信息系统的情况有所增加,但目前没有为图书馆规划、评价或审计计划或部署的AI的道德准则提供实际指导。因此,我们报告了若干有希望的促进伦理人工智能的方法,这些方法可以从其他环境改编到AI授权的信息服务以及软件生命周期的不同阶段。
