Artificial Intelligence - Social, Ethical and Legal Issues: Social, Ethical and Legal Issues

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the backbone of developing smart machines that slowly but steadily replace people's roles, hence probably becoming a threat to the existence of humanity. AI has been discussed globally as a technology that demonstrates enormous potential for improving society if it is developed and implemented properly. On the contrary, it will have a negative impact if it is not developed and implemented responsibly. This book presents the social, ethical, and legal issues of Artificial Intelligence. Various applications of Artificial Intelligence have been discussed, particularly in the fields of Medical Healthcare, Education, Libraries, Labor, Gender Equality, Private Businesses, and Government Operations. This book can help and support decisions for policymakers on crafting laws regarding Artificial Intelligence. High-risk AI systems must follow a strict set of requirements to be used in practice. The assessment of the trustworthiness and transparency of the developed AI-based system has also been discussed. Also included in this book is a detailed examination of case studies and theoretical approaches that offer practical insights on how AI can be harnessed to foster a balanced representation of genders, ultimately contributing to more equitable technological advancements. A critical analysis of the impact of AI on the digital and data divide is discussed. The book also investigates the directions and development of AI research in medicine over the next decade.
