From the Ground Truth Up: Doing AI Ethics from Practice to Principles

论文摘要
最近的AI伦理学重点是将抽象原则向下运用进行实践。本文朝另一个方向移动。道德见解是由AI设计者的生活经历产生的,然后从事有形人类问题的工作,然后向上循环以影响围绕这些问题的理论辩论:1)是否应该通过解释性或准确的绩效来寻求AI作为可信赖的AI? 2)AI应该完全被认为是值得信赖的,还是可靠性是可取的目标? 3)AI伦理是否应面向建立对用户的保护,还是要催化创新?特定的答案不如AI伦理目前对理论原则不平衡的更大的证明不那么重要,并且将受益于增加基础实践和困境的风险。
Recent AI ethics has focused on applying abstract principles downward to practice. This paper moves in the other direction. Ethical insights are generated from the lived experiences of AI-designers working on tangible human problems, and then cycled upward to influence theoretical debates surrounding these questions: 1) Should AI as trustworthy be sought through explainability, or accurate performance? 2) Should AI be considered trustworthy at all, or is reliability a preferable aim? 3) Should AI ethics be oriented toward establishing protections for users, or toward catalyzing innovation? Specific answers are less significant than the larger demonstration that AI ethics is currently unbalanced toward theoretical principles, and will benefit from increased exposure to grounded practices and dilemmas.
