Key Takeaways

Explores the responsible development and deployment of artificial intelligence, focusing on ethics in generative AI

Original Description

The "Ethical AI Use" course delves into the critical intersection of technology and ethics, focusing on the responsible development and deployment of artificial intelligence (AI). Participants will explore the evolution of AI, distinguishing between the two fundamental types, and examine the ethical considerations inherent in the realm of generative AI. Through a combination of theoretical discussions and practical exercises, students will learn about the intricate process of prompt engineering, which involves crafting inputs to guide AI systems towards ethically sound outputs. They will investigate the four qualifiers that govern AI output and master the techniques of proper prompting to ensure adherence to ethical standards. Drawing from real-world examples, including case studies centered on images, participants will analyze the ethical implications of AI applications and develop a comprehensive understanding of the ethical wheel guiding prompt engineering decisions. Ultimately, students will come to appreciate prompt engineering as both a skill and an art, essential for the ethical use of AI in various domains. This course equips participants with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the ethical complexities of AI, empowering them to contribute positively to the development and implementation of AI technologies in society.
