Ethical issues of artificial intelligence and professional ethics

Computing systems and technologies have a fundamental impact on the lives of most people in the world, including how we communicate, access information, socialize, and receive health care. This course is the second of three that examines the ethical issues in the design and implementation of computing systems and technologies, and reflects on the broader impact of computing on our society. It covers algorithmic bias in machine learning methods, professional ethics, and issues in the technologist's workplace.
