    Anyone who understands anything about modern business should have a close interest and awareness of R I S K. If one doesn't have an eye focussed on the risk of adopting technologies mindful of the ethical risks that could affect the profitability of the Company, then one does so without impunity. This in itself is an unwise move. IMHO, by going through a process of AI ethics objective evaluation one is spending some money to protect an even greater value. This is prudent decision-making. This talk has made me rather more aware of this than I would otherwise have been and for that I wish to "thank" the speaker for such an informative and well-delivered presentation. Interesting. "Thank you Ms. Canca"

    Great work! Engineer students take an ethics class in most US university programs, but every project in Industry should have both enviromental impact analysis done as well as ethical impact analysis at the beginning of the project and every project should be able to be dropped if it violates ethical phylosophy that affects negatively individual lives/humanity. We need engineering, programming/software development and phylosophy to work together to solve high technology problems that challenge our way of life and human existance.

    The truth is that most major tech breakthroughs have been made for military use first. But the ethics of AI is WAY broader than just destruction vs creation. In the past few years I’ve seen AI advance exponentially to the point of it directly threatening the future of authentic human interactions and expression. I’m highly concerned that AI engineers have no true understanding of ethics, but they pretend to by being vague like Google was in their declaration. But then again, I think most humans lack a real understanding of ethics.

    How close is the field of applied philosophy to moral questions in political science? What does political philosophy leave out in relation to the question "what is good?" (asking this because I am biased (political science bachelors :/. and the video doesn't emphasize this) ...I graduated thinking that applied ethics is essentially political ...freshman political philosophy classes are founded on the question "what is good?" and "what is just" via Aristotle and Plato... curious about other people's thoughts on this.

    Corporations lie considers cigarette companies that said "cancer causes smoking". They have no motivation to make things safe "a corporation is an ingenious tool for gaining personal wealth without personal responsibility" I actually don't remember who said that. And in Ford vs. the Board of Directors the US Supreme Court found the purpose of a corporation is to pay a dividend with stockholders. Therefore corporations have no moral obligation! Unfortunately we can't stop these things and we can't trust them.

    TED, instead of being inspiring, has become a rehearsal of ideas from 2 decades ago.
