This assignment relates to the Engineering ethics lecture:
You will work in pairs, and each pair will be assigned one of three cases that highlights ethics aspects of AI systems:
- COMPAS Links to an external site.
- Uber/Volvo accident Links to an external site.
- Skin-type and gender bias Links to an external site.
The assignment consists in reflecting around the case you study, using what you have learnt during the lecture. You are then to compile a concise, max 3 A4 page analysis into a pdf file, that you upload at latest Nov 13.
Note that the links above are only to get you started. Each case has been covered extensively in media and elsewhere and part of this assignment is for you to find relvant information about the cases.
The format should be the following:
- Approximately 1/2 page describing the case
- Approximately 1 page where you discuss the case in relation to EU guidelines Links to an external site., and possibly additional guidlines, or legal documents that you find relevant.
- Approximately 1 page where you discuss the case based from a more personal perspective.
Keep a list of references to any sources at the end of the document, and be clear when expressing opinions whether they are quoted or your own.
Once your pdf files are uploaded, we will pass them around so that each pair gets to review the report of another pair. Write a bullet list with review comments (max 1 page) that you upload and bring to the seminar on Nov 20 (see Syllabus), where all the groups will be given an opportunity to share their case analyses and respond to peer review comments.
