Overview

This article examines the moral accountability crisis arising from AI, suggesting a framework for human-centered governance and oversight.

Key Points

  • The article investigates the accountability crisis associated with artificial intelligence and argues for the necessity of preserving human moral responsibility.
  • Examined organizational practices that diffuse accountability via algorithmic opacity and weak oversight.
  • Leveraged Value Sensitive Design (VSD) and Socio-Technical Systems (STS) theory to inform the analysis.
  • Proposed a governance framework emphasizing human-centered design and distributed accountability.
  • Identified that algorithms operate on statistical prediction, lacking conscious ethical judgment.
  • Found that increased automation leads to diminished human oversight, exacerbating accountability issues.
  • Recommended a governance framework aiming for enhanced human involvement in automated processes.
