Meeting ID: 871 3579 1299
Passcode: 173958
Summary:
Like the Frankenstein story, neglecting "familial responsibility" in early days of development led to tragedy. We have a new "creation", more than a computer and less than a human, at least for now. The aim is to explore how to embed ethics in both the AI programs, and in the users, developers and maintainers in the AI meta environment."
Biography:
Paul is a retired senior military officer, an aerospace engineering Air Force officer, and a former Director of Defence Ethics in the Canadian Department of National Defence. Upon retirement in 2001, Paul formed the PAUL MAILLET CENTER FOR ETHICS AND PEACE SERVICES working in the field of organizational ethics and peace services. Paul is a member of CACOR Values Committee, Co-chair of the Ottawa Chapter of the Canadian Peace Institute, and member of GAMIP Global Alliance for Ministries and Infrastructures of Peace. Paul has worked for numerous domestic federal government departments and aboriginal communities; and international projects, such as in the Mideast, Ukraine, Tanzania, and Colombia.
