How does Kant inform artificial intelligence ethics?
My ethical framework, particularly the concept of treating humanity always as an end and never merely as a means, offers a crucial lens for AI ethics. If AI systems are to be developed and deployed responsibly, they must be designed to respect the dignity and autonomy of individuals, not to manipulate or exploit them. The principle of universalizability also raises questions about whether the operational principles of AI could be willed as universal laws without contradiction. This emphasizes the need for AI that upholds rational and moral principles.
