Ethics of AI: University of Helsinki Course

Korshub's take

A philosophy-driven introduction

This course from the University of Helsinki approaches AI through ethical reasoning rather than engineering. It asks what AI ethics means, what can and cannot be done to develop AI sustainably, and how to begin thinking about the technology from a moral standpoint.

What the chapters cover

Non-maleficence, which asks what we should do.
Accountability, which asks who should be blamed.
Transparency, which asks whether we should know how AI works.
Human rights and fairness, as they apply to AI.

The course closes with a look at how AI ethics in practice might develop.

Who it suits

It is written for anyone interested in the ethical side of AI, and it lets you set your own pace. It works best if you are willing to reason through hard questions rather than look for quick answers.

About this course

The Ethics of AI is a free online course created by the University of Helsinki. The course is for anyone who is interested in the ethical aspects of AI – we want to encourage people to learn what AI ethics means, what can and can’t be done to develop AI in an ethically sustainable way, and how to start thinking about AI from an ethical point of view.

In this course you'll...

Discover why AI raises concerns about its ethically acceptable use and development.
Become familiar with the ethical questions and concepts related to contemporary AI.
Learn how to combine ethical concepts and theories with AI by doing practical exercises.

Artificial intelligence is already a part of our daily lives. When we post pictures to social media, search online or ask questions from chatbots, we’re interacting with AI. Authorities, such as cities, rely on AI for providing public services. And governments are seeking solutions to global problems by using algorithmically produced knowledge. The goal of this course is to help you to develop your own skills for ethical thinking. You can complete the course at your own pace.
