Keynote: AI Ethics–What should we really worry about?

Speaker: Stephen Cave, PhD Cambridge University

Room: Main stage

Session description: What should we really worry about, when we worry about AI? There are competing views about what the real ethical issues are, from algorithmic bias to the robot uprising. In this talk, Professor Cave shows that there have been three distinct waves of AI ethics: one with a long history, focussed on worries about human-like machines; a much more recent wave focussed on the reality of modern machine learning; and an emerging third wave concerned with the widespread impacts of rapid technological transformation.
