The
proliferation
of
AI
has
placed
increased
focus
on
the
thorny
topic
of
ethics:
to
what
extent
are
engineers
responsible
for
-
and
to
what
extent
can
they
encode
-
the
ethical
behavior
of
the
AI
applications
they
design?From
the
contrived
trolley
car
problem
to
real-world
scenarios
such
as
autonomous
vehicle
fatalities,
questions
of
responsibility,
autonomy,
and
trust
pervade
prevailing
discussions
around
the
rapidly
advancing
capabilities
of
such
systems.
In
this
talk,
DarwinAI
CEO
Sheldon
Fernandez
(BASc
'01),
will
draw
on
his
degrees
in
both
engineering
and
theology
to
separate
fact
from
fad
in
ensuring
that
artificial
systems
behave
ethically.
Join
us
for
what
is
sure
to
be
a
fascinating
discussion
on
an
important,
multidisciplinary
topic.
