AI Ethicist

An AI Ethicist examines the ethical implications of artificial intelligence technologies. You might work within technology companies, research institutions, or advisory bodies. AI Ethicists focus on ensuring that AI systems are developed and implemented in ways that align with ethical standards and societal values. You’ll analyse the impact of AI on privacy, fairness, and transparency, and provide recommendations to mitigate potential risks.

AI Ethicists play a crucial role in guiding responsible AI development. You’ll need to be analytical and have a strong understanding of both technology and ethical principles. You’ll collaborate with engineers, policymakers, and stakeholders to promote ethical practices and safeguard public trust in AI systems.
