Re: AI For good

Prachant
I have been working on Technology Ethics for some time.
Have studied the for good movements across different fields, much needs to
be expounded
before the forces for good can be unified
1. much evil is carried out under* for good* label, this is characterized
by either some genuine
ignorance, or by some human limitation - people thing they are doing for
good but have only limited
visibiity/understanding hence eventually lose control over the set
intentions - or by some
intention to mislead (people know that they are using* for good* label to
camouflage something else, very common I learn).
2. sometimes, what is good for some, is not so good for others, so we need
to resolve the dimensional challenges across various aspect of system
development and deployment
3. in this challenging mess, which reflects the history of humanity, with
all the tragedies and triumphs
there sneak in systemic pervasiveness, a layer of widespread perversion
that transforms and twists
resources I address these loosely
https://stream.syscoi.com/2019/06/01/systemic-deviation-aka-the-evil-in-the-machine-paola-di-maio-2016-academia-edu/


Technically, I tackle these challenges by insisting on explicit logically
proofable
AI KR - we should  understand (see, touch with hand, probe) as much as
possible of AI systems
as well as on insisting on very good logical system design and processes

On a wider, bigger global scale, the struggle is to be able to understand
the scale of things
the struggle between good and evil, the paradox that there can be good in
evil and evil in good,
without losing the plot and remain functional for all intents and purposes
