Beneficence

New procedures should do good Bring net benefits (utilitarian)

slide-19
SLIDE 19

Beneficence

New procedures should do good Bring net benefits (utilitarian) We saw this, for example, in Google’s AI principles

Non-maleficence

Does no harm to anyone Not the same as beneficence (more egalitarian)

slide-21
SLIDE 21

Non-maleficence

Does no harm to anyone Not the same as beneficence (more egalitarian) Privacy trade-offs

Precautionary principle

When an activity raises threats of harm to human health or the environment, precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause and effect relationships are not fully established scientifically Enshrined in international law (e.g. EU law, Kyoto protocol)

Precautionary principle

When an activity raises threats of harm to human health or the environment, precautionary measures should be taken even if some cause and effect relationships are not fully established scientifically Applies very well to uncertain impacts of AI (especially on our mental health)
