What is it about?

A comprehensive look at the development of an ethical framework, code of conduct, and value-based design methodologies for AI researchers and application developers in Europe. The “Barcelona Declaration for the Proper Development and Usage of Artificial Intelligence in Europe” was launched in the spring of 2017 at the B-Debate event in Barcelona, to stimulate further discussion among policy makers, industry leaders, researchers and application developers on AI’s opportunities and risks in the current “gold rush” environment.

Why is it important?

Given the widespread interest in AI and the eagerness to develop applications that affect people in their daily lives, it is important that the research and application development community engages in open discussions to avoid unrealistic expectations, unintended consequences, and usage that causes negative side effects or human suffering.

Perspectives

We believe that this article can contribute to view AI as a force for the good of society and will raise awareness about the limitations of AI.
