Simulate increasingly unethical product requests and deadlines. The only way to pass is to refuse and justify your refusal with professional standards.
Watch as peers increasingly overpromise and accept unethical product requests and deadlines and leave you high, mighty, and picking up the scraps as they move on to the next thing.
Conventional university degrees already contain practical examples of the principles of both these courses in the form of cheating and the social dynamics around it.
Hmm I seem to remember considering the ethics of contracting for the military, for example, but not in a mock sprint planning, if that's what you mean.
I've never seen this. Is this some weird right wing talking point?
I have seen a disconnect between what is covered in ethics classes and the types of scenarios students will encounter in the working world. My (one) ethics class was useless. But not political even with the redrawn ethical map of the Trump era.
Building systems that don't bake bias into code or worrying about privacy in a dating app is probably the kind of politics the parent is talking about.
I'm not really sure how you could totally separate politics (forming laws) from ethics anyway.
I linked my lecture about how I see "ethics" as another term for "politics" in the academic sense.
Other points to note: All AI will always have bias; a) because neural networks literally have a constant called 'bias' in them; and b) training a prediction algorithm means it is being trained to be bias and running a clustering algorithm means lumping commonly themed attributes together.
If you mean "BIAS" as in "RACE/ETHNICITY/SOCIOECONOMIC_STATUS", then most groups already do this, state they do it, and still deal with the general public not believing them.
Reread my last sentence - allow me to rephrase it:
If you mean "BIAS" as in avoiding "RACE/ETHNICITY/SOCIOECONOMIC_STATUS", most groups state they do not use them for decision making and still deal with the "general public" not believing them because results do not support their opinions.
This isn't a "Trump Era"/"Right Wing Talking Point" amigo, its the truth; also it's always been this way, listen to some punk rock. Is AI allowed to generate child pornography? Because that is currently being argued as protected by Free Speech in courts because no child was actually involved [1]. Sorry your ethics class was useless, I don't believe mine is.
