The new Italian Society for Ethics of AI (www.sipeia.it) is organizing online PhD courses on “Ethics and AI” in English language offered to several PhD programmes.
For information and registration write to info@sipeia.it
Edition 2023
Abstract:
The mini-course intends to provide a brief overview of the main ethical issues concerning AI from an interdisciplinary perspective. The starting point is the clarification of what an “ethics” is, so as to offer the reference coordinates of the discourse, which is then articulated in the analyzes by way of examples of specific issues in the different directions. In particular, issues relating to the impact that AI has and will increasingly have on social life are examined, especially concerning the problem of biases; the interconnections with medicine and health care; the methods of legal regulation.
Teachers:
Maurizio Mori; Consulta di Bioetica Onlus
Tiziana Catarci; DIAG, Università la Sapienza Roma
Guido Boella; Dipartimento di Informatica, Unito.
Giovanni Sartor; CIRSFID, Unibo.
Addressees: PhD students at different phases of their PhD programme.
Programme:
4 hours: Maurizio Mori: The first two hours are dedicated to outlining a theory of ethics capable of accounting for moral analyzes for human societies and also for larger societies. The other two hours try to apply the conceptual tools acquired for a moral analysis of the possible interactions between AI and health care.
2 hours: Tiziana Catarci: Biases in AI
4 hours: Guido Boella: Panorama of the various ethical issues of AI. Reflection on the impact of AI in society and ethics.
2 hours: Giovanni Sartor: From ethics to law. Reflection on the relationship between artificial intelligence applications and human rights. Implications for data protection and consumer protection.
Schedule:
October-November 2023
Mode:
