This lesson gives an in-depth introduction of ethics in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly in the context of its impact on humans and public interest. As the healthcare sector becomes increasingly affected by the implementation of ever stronger AI algorithms, this lecture covers key interests which must be protected going forward, including privacy, consent, human autonomy, inclusiveness, and equity. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 1:22:06
Speaker: : Daniel Buchman

This lesson describes a definitional framework for fairness and health equity in the age of the algorithm. While acknowledging the impressive capability of machine learning to positively affect health equity, this talk outlines potential (and actual) pitfalls which come with such powerful tools, ultimately making the case for collaborative, interdisciplinary, and transparent science as a way to operationalize fairness in health equity. 

Difficulty level: Beginner

Speaker: : Ariel Rokem

This lecture gives a tour of what neuroethics is and how it applies to neuroscience and neurotechnology, while also addressing justice concerns within both fields. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 58:45
Speaker: : Tim Brown

This lecture presents selected theories of ethics as applied to questions raised by the Human Brain Project.

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 38:49

The HBP as an ICT flagship project crucially relies on ICT and will contribute important input into the development of new computing principles and artefacts. Individuals working on the HBP should therefore be aware of the long history of ethical issues discussed in computing. This lessson provides an overview of the most widely discussed ethical issues in computing and demonstrate that privacy and data protection are by no means the only issue worth worrying about. 

Difficulty level: Beginner
Duration: 46:12
Speaker: : Bernd Stahl

This lecture explores two questions regarding the ethics of robot development and use. Firstly, the increasingly urgent question of the ethical use of robots: are there particular applications of robots that should be proscribed, in eldercare, or surveillance, or combat? Secondly, the talk deals with the longer-term question of whether intelligent robots themselves could or should be ethical.
