Nuestro compañero Joan Llorca Albareda, miembro de FiloLab, ha publicado un artículo en la revista AI and Ethics, de la Editorial Springer Nature. El trabajo, que se titula «Uncovering the gap: challenging the agential nature of AI responsibility problems», aborda los problemas de responsabilidad que afectan a la inteligencia artificial. A continuación reproducimos el abstract del artículo, que se puede leer completo a través de este enlace.
Abstract
In this paper, I will argue that the responsibility gap arising from new AI systems is reducible to the problem of many hands and collective agency. Systematic analysis of the agential dimension of AI will lead me to outline a disjunctive between the two problems. Either we reduce individual responsibility gaps to the many hands, or we abandon the individual dimension and accept the possibility of responsible collective agencies. Depending on which conception of AI agency we begin with, the responsibility gap will boil down to one of these two moral problems. Moreover, I will adduce that this conclusion reveals an underlying weakness in AI ethics: the lack of attention to the question of the disciplinary boundaries of AI ethics. This absence has made it difficult to identify the specifics of the responsibility gap arising from new AI systems as compared to the responsibility gaps of other applied ethics. Lastly, I will be concerned with outlining these specific aspects.
