To the best of my knowledge, there are no papers about "we deployed this big ethical system in the wild", although some of the big companies have begun testing similar internal efforts on a small scale.
A lack of public efforts seems to be the equilibrium we're at, because any public effort is definitely going to attract a bunch of essays like this. Any partial attempt that looks like "we're trying to be ethical" is going to get scrutinized hard.
Continuing to put out more hypothetical theoretical work ("we prove this result about this algorithm, and it achieves a well-defined fairness goal on this common dataset") while cautioning that actual deployments should be put off until we understand everything better ("the fairness goal we define is probably not perfect, we are not saying you should use it") is much safer.
- exdsq 7y agoEven if it's unrelated to deploying a big ethical system in the wild, just a paper saying "we use this algorithm to watch the memory of this network to change these things if it started to do those things" etc. Any sort of toy implementation would be interested. What I'm really interested in is if you can use formal specifications to constrict AI systems - which is what made me start my search. But even widening it considerably, I still didn't find anything tangible. I only looked for an hour or two mind you.
