Introduction to AI Ethics and Risks: Foundations for Responsible AI Development

AI ethics and risks encompass the moral principles and potential hazards associated with the development, deployment, and use of artificial intelligence systems.

As AI technologies become more pervasive, understanding the ethical considerations—such as fairness, transparency, and accountability—is crucial for developers, policymakers, and users.

This section introduces core concepts, highlighting the importance of aligning AI systems with human values to prevent harm and foster trust. A practical analogy is comparing AI governance to traffic laws: just as regulations ensure safe and fair road use, ethical frameworks guide responsible AI development.
