Groundbreaking Developments in Artificial Intelligence Spark Ethical Debate on Artificial Intelligence
The swift advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has recently sparked an intense debate within ethicists, policymakers, and the general public about its implications on society. Though AI holds tremendous potential to disrupt various sectors, from manufacturing to entertainment, there are growing concerns regarding its likelihood to worsen existing divisions and present new ethical dilemmas.
