AI Ethics

Harnessing the Power of AI Ethically

Artificial Intelligence promises innovation in health care, consumer products, research, and education. However, to make a lasting change and continue to bring innovation to our society, we must manage AI ethically and with regard to privacy, autonomy, trust, accuracy, and community impact.


Given the potential for damaging biases and inequities, developers of AI technology have to pay attention to these unintended consequences and guard against them. This panel will dive into the ethics of AI and provide examples of how industry leaders can use what is known about human behavior to address ethical issues and help us realize the power of AI to benefit human health and flourishing.
