Ethical Problems of Contemporary AI

Following the advances in AI produced by the deep learning revolution (۲۰۱۲ to present), AI now has a whole range of applications in industry and commerce. Unfortunately, many of these applications are widely considered to be morally wrong. This situation is illustrated by the example of deepfake pornography. Other examples are more nuanced and there is argument about whether they are morally wrong or not. This is illustrated by the example of targeted advertising which has been defended as acceptable. The arguments for and against targeted advertising are discussed. An account is given of an interesting experiment by Janet Vertesi in which she tried to keep her pregnancy a secret from marketing companies and ended up by being suspected of criminal activity. The conclusion is that targeted advertising is bad and should be abolished.
