Informatics on a social view and need of ethical interventions for wellbeing via interference of artificial intelligence
Abstract
The main focus of this paper was to discuss and appraise the attribution of intelligence and value judgement on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and its regulated use in society. Humans are tool-making creatures and AI is used for civilization via tools. During the time of pre-civilization, tools were simple in the form of crude construction, using hand skills but at present, the achievements are the substitution of machinery to relieve/replace human intellect. AI is the scientific technique of bringing learning, adaptation, and self-organization of machines. It encompasses various concepts and methods, deployed by researchers in many diverse fields of computation and cognition. This is the computational mode of a brain, based on artificial neural networks. The usefulness of AI ethically, initiates a big question i.e. if the human mind is not self-sufficient for any work without harming the moral sentiment of others then, how can people believe in a computational model of the mind, is a machine, morally responsible for any good or bad action. We highlight issues on the use of AI in the replacement of the human mind asking what is the value of humans in this age of AI? Can AI reciprocate and respect human values better than human beings? Can AI replace human intelligence? In the case of ethical enquiry, it is rather a herculean task to consider a machine's action to be moral or immoral, after all, it is just a machinery action devoid of any moral quality.
