Isn’t the same person held accountable both with and without the algorithm: no one?
Unless the police man makes a radically obviously wrong decision, isn’t he protected by immunity anyways? If he’s properly weighing the options and makes a decision according to the orders, what would happen to them?
- bluefirebrand 2y ago> If he’s properly weighing the options and makes a decision according to the orders, what would happen to them? Right, but those are things that can be investigated. If it turns out the officer didn't use good judgment, or was drunk on the job when they made the choice or was otherwise negligent, there absolutely should be consequences, no? But how do you do this with a black box algorithm?
- echoangle 2y agoWell the requirement is that the AI was developed with the necessary care, and after that, what it says is not negligent by definition. If the developers mishandled something during the development, they are responsible. If the police enters wrong data and it is found to be negligent, they are responsible. I don’t really get the ethical problem here.
