Towards An Ethics-Audit Bot. Pearson, S., Lloyd, M., & Nallur, V. In ICT, Society and Human Beings, volume 15, pages 187–191, July, 2021. IADIS Press. arXiv: 2103.15746
Paper abstract bibtex In this paper we focus on artificial intelligence (AI) for governance, not governance for AI, and on just one aspect of governance, namely ethics audit. Different kinds of ethical audit bots are possible, but who makes the choices and what are the implications? In this paper, we do not provide ethical/philosophical solutions, but rather focus on the technical aspects of what an AI-based solution for validating the ethical soundness of a target system would be like. We propose a system that is able to conduct an ethical audit of a target system, given certain socio-technical conditions. To be more specific, we propose the creation of a bot that is able to support organisations in ensuring that their software development lifecycles contain processes that meet certain ethical standards.
