Humanity is at an inflection point. More and more decisions once made by people are being made by machines, often without transparency or accountability. A.I. Nation, a new podcast from WHYY and Princeton University, reveals how artificial intelligence is operating in the background, and sometimes foreground, of every major story, trend, and event in our modern lives.

Over the last decade, concerns about the power and danger of Artificial Intelligence have moved from the fantasy of “Terminator” to reality, and anxieties about killer robots have been joined by many others that are more immediate. All of this raises huge ethical questions, some fairly familiar (e.g. concerning privacy, information security, appropriate rules of automated behaviour) but many quite new (e.g. concerning algorithmic bias, transparency, and wider impacts). It is in this context that Oxford is creating an Institute for AI Ethics, to open up a broad conversation between the University’s researchers and students in the many related disciplines, including Philosophy, Computer Science, Engineering, Social Science, and Medicine (amongst others). The Ethics in AI seminars are intended to facilitate this broad conversation, exploring ethical questions in AI in a truly interdisciplinary way that brings together students and leading experts from around the University.

AI presents major areas of ethical concern for society, including privacy, surveillance, bias, discrimination, the role of human judgment and more. Ethical AI explores these topics through conversations with the world's leading technologists, academics, entrepreneurs and policy-makers to find out how they see our future with ethical AI. Your host, Elina Naydenova is a biomedical & AI engineer with a PhD in Machine Learning for Healthcare Innovation from Oxford University. She is also the CEO & co-founder of Feebris – a next-generation remote monitoring company.

Three claims drive my new podcast, Ethical Machines.
1. New technologies are coming our way every day: AI, blockchain, quantum computers, AR/VR and more.
2. These technologies and their applications will have massive ethical implications.
3. We need to understand these technologies so we can stop our ethical nightmares from being realized.

We sit down with the founder of Stability AI, Emad Mostaque, on the heels of his $101 million fund-raising round. His open-source Stable Diffusion image generator is the key to unlocking creativity, he says, and “one of the ultimate tools for freedom of expression” — as long as it stays out of the hands of a few censorious tech giants. So what’s this former hedge fund manager turned tech mogul thinking about how this technology could be used — or misused?

From the technology upsetting jobs and causing intellectual property issues to models making up fake answers to questions, here’s why we’re concerned about generative AI.

ChatGPT, Bard, and Bing are gaining traction but their outputs may not always be grounded in facts.

Host Dan Turchin, PeopleReign CEO, explores how AI is changing the workplace. He interviews thought leaders and technologists from industry and academia who share their experiences and insights about artificial intelligence and what it means to be human in the era of AI-driven automation.

Generative AI enables users to quickly generate new content based on a variety of inputs. Inputs and outputs to these models can include text, images, sounds, animation, 3D models, or other types of data.

The likes of ChatGPT and DALL-E, both from OpenAI, are rapidly gaining traction in the world of business and content creation. But what is generative AI, how does it work and what is all the buzz about?

Artificial intelligence has existed for years. But generative AI, a subset of the field, recently has propelled the technology into public view.

What is ChatGPT and how is it impacting research, education, industry, and society at large? Where did it originate? How did it evolve and what’s on the horizon for this type of generative AI technology? Will these technologies change the world as we know it?

In the next 10 years, over 1 billion jobs are set to be transformed by AI technology. Higher education institutions need to prepare students for this revolution. Three fundamental reforms to higher education can help achieve this aim.

In this article, Glenn Gow broadly defines the risks that come with widespread implementation of AI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and its introduction into clinical pathways presents an array of ethical issues that are being discussed in the JME.

The creation of art, journalism, education, and the very truth itself have all been tested by the use of ChatGPT and other generative AIs. Markkula Center staff and scholars unpack some of the many related ethical dilemmas in this Ethics Spotlight.
