principles are known as ethics.

according to him/her is the right priority and hence would be the selection
made by the machine.
▪ Every person has their own perspective and he/she takes the decision
according to their moralities.
3. Why ethical practices should be followed while developing solutions using AI?

15. “In the coming years, AI-enabled machines will replace all the people who work as
labourers.” Justify this statement.
o As per one thought, AI makes our life easier.
o People want most things in just one click and some platforms provide that
too.
o So, AI enables machines or devices will do the task with just a click.
 o Where for the same task human being takes more time compared to AI
machines.

takes charge.

Unskilled people have difficulties in growth and personal development.

So employees need to be trained in new skills on regular basis.
17. Why AI models are biased in one or another way? Explain it.
o As we are humans, have our own biases towards things.
o Biases are not negative all the time.
o Sometimes it is required to have a bias to control a situation and things
working.
o Similarly, machines can have intelligence but not their own bias.
o Any bias can transfer from the developer to the machine through the
algorithm.
o So they are working according to the algorithm. So they are biased in one or
another way.
18. Is it ethical that children to use technology to help to finish their study-related

o The use of technology by children is making them smart and techno-savy.
o At the same time, they can misuse that and learn what is not important to

but not all the time.
19. What do you understand about the problem of inclusion?
o The problem of inclusion refers to the problem that some people are left out

 o Amazon has started the recruitment process through AI, but the AI system
left many eligible females into consideration.
20. What do you understand by the fact interpretation?
o The AI system can collect the facts or scan data and learn from it but is not
able to understand the reason behind a particular conclusion or learning.
