Topics

John McCarthy, a pioneer in computer science, coined the term ‘Artificial Intelligence’ (AI) in 1955. Although McCarthy’s vision was revolutionary, it largely overlooked a crucial aspect without which all intelligence, including that of systems, is an empty shell devoid of meaning: integrity. The real challenge for leaders in AI development lies not in making AI systems more intelligent, but in recognizing and addressing the inherent places where they would fit in our organizations and our societies to preserve what is core to human values and enhance, not harm, their integrity. At its heart, Artificial Integrity aims to foster a symbiotic relationship between AI and humanity, where technology supports human well-being and societal progress, redefining the interaction between human wit and AI’s capabilities.

In this talk Hamilton Mann offers an exploration into ‘Artificial Integrity’ as a new AI paradigm, presenting this novel approach in AI development and implementation.

To grasp the essence of ‘Digital for Good’, it is essential to acknowledge that technology, even when created with the best intentions for the greater good, is not inherently immune from producing adverse effects in society.

Technology itself is not inherently sustainable or positive.

A comprehensive understanding of ‘Digital for Good’ starts by thinking against oneself, especially as a technologist, with the acknowledgment of some critical paradoxes, paving the way for a more mindful and responsible approach to technological development in society.

Some of these paradoxes include the following:

  • There’s no technology without environmental debt
  • Chaos theory applies to technology
  • Jevons paradox challenges technology’s efficiency beliefs
  • Technology-fixes pledges for no ease
  • Technology has no exclusivity on innovation
  • Yesterday’s technology decisions set limits to new technology adoption
  • Technology-Regulation gap is the best call for responsible technology

In this talk, Hamilton Mann help navigates these complex paradoxes, offering strategies and insights for harnessing the power of technology responsibly.
