Our future with A.I.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) seems a futuristic idea, but it is already part of our life. Thanks to AI, we can have customized services, optimize our business, identify alleged illegal data mining, evaluate risks, and improve medical treatments and diagnosis. But the enormous potential of this technology could put some legitimate concerns about several aspects such as data, discriminations, the compliance to human values, transparency, and the impact on the world of work. Our responsibility is to plan the future we want identifying AI ethical guiding lines and following appropriate ethical principles.
