Study Notes
AI Biases and Ethics
- Facial recognition systems can exhibit biases, with higher error rates for dark-skinned women than light-skinned men, highlighting the need for more diverse training data.
- AI ethics codes provide guidance, but principles lack enforcement, and concrete actions are needed to make principles actionable.
- The Bletchley Declaration focuses on hypothetical long-term AI risks like singularity, but faced criticism on scope, representation, and concrete impact.
AI and Consciousness
- The Chinese room thought experiment proposes that a computer program, like a person, may give the appearance of understanding without real understanding or consciousness.
- Research on brain imaging suggests that unconscious processes may initiate actions before conscious awareness, raising questions about free will and personal responsibility.
- Materialist currents of consciousness view the mind as a computational system that can be studied scientifically, while computationalism proposes that the mind is fundamentally computational and can be replicated in machines.
AI-Enabled Insurance Underwriting
- AI-enabled insurance underwriting uses machine learning algorithms to process vast datasets from sources like telematics, wearables, and social media, allowing for more accurate and personalized risk assessments.
- Benefits include increased efficiency, more personalized policies, and lower premiums, but challenges include data privacy concerns and regulatory compliance.
- Regulatory questions include AML/KYC compliance, explainable AI decisions, and maintaining transparency.
MiFID II Regulation
- MiFID II aims to prevent disruptions and volatility from algorithmic trading, improving safeguards for investors in financial markets.
- Firms must be transparent about their algorithmic trading strategies and systems, ensuring market integrity and stability in the EU.
Situational Consciousness and Algorithmic Biases
- Situational awareness in AI raises concerns about applying knowledge from one context to another, unrelated context, highlighting the need for increased vigilance by developers.
- Historical data bias, impact assessments, and mitigation practices are crucial in reducing algorithmic biases in AI systems.
- Programmers should be aware of their own biases, and multiple practices are needed to reduce biases.
Employment and Cybersecurity Challenges
- AI has the potential to boost productivity, but also creates demand for tech skills, and transition support is crucial to mitigate disruption.
- AI systems are vulnerable to cyberattacks, and robust cybersecurity measures are essential to ensure responsible and ethical AI systems.
