There are many different approaches out there to defining AI ethics. Here is mine.
AI ethics is a field that aims to:
➤ Understand the risks and opportunities AI creates for the well-being of
-- People
-- Society
-- The environment
-- Non-human sentient beings (such as animals and sentient robots, if and when they will exist)
➤ Manage the risks and opportunities, i.e., work to mitigate the risks and take advantage of the opportunities. Common strategies:
-- Formulating principles for responsible development and use of AI
-- Creating tools to operationalize the principles
-- Advocating for regulation
