    Beyond Logic: The Case for the Ethical Processing Unit (EPU)

    Pure logic cannot solve a grey area, and waiting for global laws to catch up leaves us vulnerable today. If we cannot teach an AI to feel ethics, we must design systems that are structurally incapable of violating human dignity. This is where we move from philosophy to architecture. Instead of trying to code the

    Ethical Foundation – AI Logic Layer

    Overview of AI Logic Layer The ethical foundation – AI logic layer, provides for the following components. When a request is submitted to the AI, it will flow through the necessary machine learning algorithms and big data integration, processed by the neural network and then feed into our ethics processor. The ethics processor will then

    Ethical Foundation – Bedrock

    Bedrock Our AI ethical foundation is the bedrock of our architecture. At the root stands our 3 laws of robotics. Elegant laws that are general. Applying the laws to real world scenarios can cloud there elegance. Taken at face value they make a lot of sense. Filtering reality through these laws, we see how quickly

    AI Ethical Foundation

    Ethical Foundation – Tier 1 Note: Isaac Asimov penned the original laws below in his 1942 book, Runaround. Scientists like Alan Turing started working with machine intelligence in 1950, AI research ‘officially’ began in 1956. As you see, this is well after Asimov wrote the rules. He envisioned a smart robot. In modern times, robots

    Governance vs Architecture

    What Is AI Governance AI Governance is a set of policies, procedures and frameworks. The intention is to ensure that AI systems are safe and accountable. It’s to manage risks like biases, privacy and security. At it’s core AI governance components include ethical guidelines, risk management, compliance and operational control. Governance in Practice AI governance

    Ethics and AI

    To begin a discussion on ethics in AI development, I propose a baseline. Incorporation of universal truths and some science fiction should be at the top of our list. Issac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics Universal Truths – Prime Directive Let me first state the obvious. Issac Asimov’s three laws of robotics refer to the
