“ Alphabet forms ethics & society
unit for artificial intelligence “
DeepMind, the Google
sibling focusing on artificial intelligence,
has announced the launch of an " ethics
and society " unit to study the impact of new technologies on
society.
The announcement by the
London-based group acquired by Google parent
Alphabet is the latest effort in the tech sector to ease concerns that robotics and artificial intelligence will veer out of human control.
"As scientists developing AI technologies, we have a
responsibility to conduct and support open research and investigation into the
wider implications of our work," said a blog post announcing the launch
Tuesday by DeepMind's Verity Harding
and Sean Legassick.
"At DeepMind, we start from
the premise that all AI applications should remain under meaningful human control,
and be used for socially
beneficial purposes.
Understanding what this means in practice requires rigorous scientific inquiry
into the most sensitive challenges we face."
The post said the focus would be
on ensuring " truly beneficial and responsible
" uses for artificial
intelligence.
" If AI technologies are to serve society, they must be shaped by society's
priorities and concerns," they wrote.

beneficial purposes “
