“Keep an eye on AI”

Kirjoittaja: Susanna Cygnel

An ethics expert strongly recommends experimenting with different ways of using artificial intelligence, but at the same time staying alert.

Anna Savonen, an ethics expert, has studied artificial intelligence as a consultant and researcher for companies. She emphasises that the users of artificial intelligence must be aware of the factors affecting artificial intelligence.

“Artificial intelligence involves many ethical aspects. I encourage people to stop and think for a moment before using AI,” she advises.

Can you trust the information provided by artificial intelligence?

Artificial intelligence has learned statistical connections between different words and phrases. It provides a lot of information, but you cannot blindly trust it. It remains up to humans to assess whether the information produced by artificial intelligence is true or false.

Is artificial intelligence safe – where does the information I enter go to?

In the case of free AI generators, the user pays for the use by providing data, but it is difficult to see to which technology company the data will ultimately go. The data is used, for example, for the development of artificial intelligence

Many companies use closed systems that are subject to a fee and do not provide data  outside the company.

How will artificial intelligence change the world?

Artificial intelligence can do a lot of good in areas such as healthcare, safety and environmental protection.

For example, artificial intelligence can analyse X-ray images with great precision or speed up diagnosis, even though the final treatment decisions must always be made by the healthcare professionals. In environmental work, artificial intelligence can, for example, monitor the effects of climate change and predict extreme weather phenomena by screening a huge amount of data extremely quickly.

It should also be remembered that AI platforms and services are being developed by technology giants. Which means these companies have a lot of power globally.

What impacts will the new EU regulation on AI have on workplaces?

From February next year, every organisation that uses and develops AI should develop its AI literacy skills to some extent.

In addition, there are certain requirements for the use of artificial intelligence in recruitment, such as that the systems used must not be based on discriminatory information or algorithms that could harm certain groups of people, such as based on gender, race or age, and that the final choices must always be made by people.
