Description
Fairness, or not Fairness, That is the Question. Rethinking Virtual Assistants' Responses From an Ethical Perspective
Giulia Teverini, Joy Ciliani and Alessia Nicoletta Marino
Abstract: The workshop aims to delve into the intricate aspects of ethics applied to human-computer interaction. Participants will engage in practical activities in which they will analyze conversations with virtual assistants, distinguishing between appropriate and inappropriate interactions. In this context, the ethical principles proposed by the European Commission will be used as guidelines to ensure favorable conditions for the development of trustworthy AI-based systems. Immediately after participants will be asked to propose scenario-based solutions to tackle ethical issues which have emerged in the previous stage. At the end of the workshop, each group will show the result to the audience. The collaborative nature of the workshop aims at fostering critical thinking, practical understanding, and collective reasoning.
