What will you do when your AI misbehaves?The promise of artificial intelligence is automated decision-making at scale, but that means AI also automates risk at scale. Are you prepared for that risk?Already, many companies have suffered real damage when their algorithms led to discriminatory, privacy-invading, and even deadly outcomes. Self-driving cars have hit pedestrians; HR algorithms have precluded women from job searches; mortgage systems have denied loans to qualified minorities. And often the companies who deployed the AI couldn''t explain why the black box made the decision it did.In this environment, AI ethics isn''t merely an academic curiosity, it''s a business necessity. In Ethical Machines, Reid Blackman gives you all you need to understand AI ethics as a risk management challenge. He''ll help you build, procure, and deploy AI in a way that''s not only ethical but also safe in terms of your organization''s reputation, regulatory compliance, and legal standing—and do it at scale.And don''t worry—the book''s purpose is to get work done, not to ponder deep and existential questions about ethics and technology. Blackman''s clear and accessible writing helps make a complex and often misunderstood concept like ethics easy to grasp. Most importantly, Blackman makes ethics actionable by tackling ...
