Abstract

Technological developments have and will continue to influence our everyday lives. One of them, AI, promises many benefits in various fields, such as medicine, agriculture, or the military. On the other hand, AI advancement encompasses multifaceted risks and challenges, such as data privacy concerns, opaque decision-making, or discrimination against groups or individuals. AI and Big Data have gained more and more importance in military operations all over the globe. The German military has been trailing different approaches to AI-based early crisis detection applications. However, the more insights are gained about AI and the harm human errors in designing algorithms can cause, the more ethical concerns arise. Thus, this paper investigates which ethical challenges the German military is facing while testing and trying to implement AI-based early crisis detection systems.
早期危机检测的伦理——德国军队中的大数据、人工智能和算法
科技的发展已经并将继续影响我们的日常生活。其中之一是人工智能,它有望在医学、农业或军事等各个领域带来许多好处。另一方面,人工智能的发展也包含多方面的风险和挑战,例如数据隐私问题、不透明的决策或对群体或个人的歧视。人工智能和大数据在全球军事行动中的作用越来越重要。德国军方一直在研究基于人工智能的早期危机检测应用的不同方法。然而,对人工智能和设计算法时人为错误可能造成的危害的了解越多,就会出现更多的伦理问题。因此,本文调查了德国军方在测试和尝试实施基于人工智能的早期危机检测系统时面临的道德挑战。
