The ethical and societal implications of artificial intelligence systems raise concerns. In this article, we outline a novel process based on applied ethics, namely, Z-Inspection <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">®</sup> , to assess if an AI system is trustworthy. We use the definition trustworthy given by high-level European Commission's expert group AI. general inspection that can be variety domains where are used, such as...

This paper documents how an ethically aligned co-design methodology ensures trustworthiness in the early design phase of artificial intelligence (AI) system component for healthcare. The explains decisions made by deep learning networks analyzing images skin lesions. trustworthy AI developed here used a holistic approach rather than static ethical checklist and required multidisciplinary team experts working with designers their managers. Ethical, legal, technical issues potentially arising...

Acceleration ethics addresses the tension between innovation and safety in artificial intelligence. The acceleration argument is that most effective way to approach risks raised by with still more innovating. This paper begins defining theoretically. It composed of five elements: solves problems, intrinsically valuable, unknown encouraging, governance decentralized, embedded. Subsequently, illustrates framework a use-case, generative intelligence language tool developed Canadian...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to greatly improve delivery of healthcare and other services that advance population health wellbeing. However, use AI in also brings risks may cause unintended harm. To guide future developments AI, High-Level Expert Group on set up by European Commission (EC), recently published ethics guidelines for what it terms “trustworthy” AI. These are aimed at a variety stakeholders, especially guiding practitioners toward more ethical robust...

This article's main contributions are twofold: 1) to demonstrate how apply the general European Union's High-Level Expert Group's (EU HLEG) guidelines for trustworthy AI in practice domain of healthcare and 2) investigate research question what does "trustworthy AI" mean at time COVID-19 pandemic. To this end, we present results a post-hoc self-assessment evaluate trustworthiness an system predicting multiregional score conveying degree lung compromise patients, developed verified by...

In 1990, Gilles Deleuze published Postscript on the Societies of Control , an introduction to potentially suffocating reality nascent control society. This thirty-year update details how Deleuze’s conception has developed from a broad speculative vision into specific economic mechanisms clustering around personal information, big data, predictive analytics, and marketing. The central claim is that today’s advancing society coerces without prohibitions, through incentives are not grim but...

One objection to conventional AI ethics is that it slows innovation. This presentation responds by reconfiguring as an innovation accelerator. The critical elements develop from a contrast between Stability AI's Diffusion and OpenAI's Dall-E. By analyzing the divergent values underlying their opposed strategies for development deployment, five conceptions are identified common acceleration ethics. Uncertainty understood positive encouraging, rather than discouraging. Innovation conceived...

Abstract Three directions for the AI avant-garde are sketched against background of time. Posthumanism changes what we are, and belongs to radical future. Transhumanism how corresponds with past. Genhumanism who exists in present. While developing concepts, this essay intersects two ways theoretical debates about humanism face technological advance. First, it describes temporal divisions may cleanly differentiate post- transhumanism. Second, introduces generative humanism, which contributes...
