  • Artificial Intelligence/Artificial Wisdom
    Artificial Intelligence/Artificial Wisdom - A Drive for Improving Behavioral and Mental Health Care (06 September to 10 September 2021) Department of Computer Science & Information Technology Central University of Jammu, J&K-181143 Preamble An Artificial Intelligence is the capability of a machine to imitate intelligent human behaviour. Machine learning is based on the idea that machines should be able to learn and adapt through experience. Machine learning is a subset of AI. That is, all machine learning counts as AI, but not all AI counts as machine learning. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology holds both great promises to transform mental healthcare and potential pitfalls. Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly employed in healthcare fields such as oncology, radiology, and dermatology. However, the use of AI in mental healthcare and neurobiological research has been modest. Given the high morbidity and mortality in people with psychiatric disorders, coupled with a worsening shortage of mental healthcare providers, there is an urgent need for AI to help identify high-risk individuals and provide interventions to prevent and treat mental illnesses. According to the publication Spectrum News, a form of AI called "deep learning" is sometimes better able than human beings to spot relevant patterns. This five days course provides an overview of AI approaches and current applications in mental healthcare, a review of recent original research on AI specific to mental health, and a discussion of how AI can supplement clinical practice while considering its current limitations, areas needing additional research, and ethical implications regarding AI technology. The proposed workshop is envisaged to provide opportunity to our learners to seek and share knowledge and teaching skills in cutting edge areas from the experienced and reputed faculty.

  • Implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Dynamics of Medical Education Education Section and Care: a Perspective
    DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2020/43293.13565 View Point Implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Dynamics of Medical Education Education Section and Care: A Perspective TRIPTI K SRIVASTAVA1, LALITBHUSHAN WAGHMARE2 ABSTRACT Artificial Intelligence (AI) applies to the development of systems endowed with the intellectual processes characteristic of humans. The AI era is likely to profoundly impact present system of Health care. Large data storing, processing and its interpretation through Electronic Medical records (EMRs) indicate great potential benefit to health services. Devices are likely to outperform humans, more so cognitively; and coming to terms with this fact require physicians to brace themselves to practice in a technologically enhanced environment. In near future, AI is likely to take a central place in health care with everything revolving round its mechanics. The era of AI envisages new roles of a physician and health professionals should realise the importance of being efficient in interacting with these machines in an efficient manner. Patient psychology and empathy shall take a central place in patient care and budding doctors should be braced with such relevant competencies. Accordingly, AI needs to find a suitable place within the curriculum of medical education that deals with technology, interactive learning environments and managing AI systems. It is also imperative that medical teachers realise the potential of AI on health care and are suitably equipped to train these emerging concepts to future doctors. Keywords: Electronic medical records, Health care, System INTRODUCTION Health Care and AI The AI is re-shaping and re-defining the professions in a big way. From streamlining operations to better decision making; growing Consequentially, health profession dynamics is undergoing a sea body of research on AI provesits profound impact on Healthcare, change in terms of education and care.

WHEN ROBOTS MAKE LEGAL MISTAKES SUSAN C. MORSE* Abstract The questions presented by robots’ legal mistakes are examples of the legal process inquiry that asks when the law will accept decisions as final, even if they are mistaken. Legal decision-making robots include market robots and government robots. In either category, they can make mistakes of undercompliance or overcompliance. A market robot’s overcompliance mistake or a government robot’s undercompliance mistake is unlikely to be challenged. On the other hand, government enforcement can challenge a market robot’s undercompliance mistake, and an aggrieved regulated party can object to a government robot’s overcompliance mistake. Robots will have an incentive to make decisions that will avoid the prospect of challenge, especially if they cannot defend their legal decisions due to a lack of explainability.

  • Singularity2030 Dynamic Reference Book © 2021 Newtrac AG, Meggen, Switzerland
    Singularity2030 Dynamic Reference Book © 2021 Newtrac AG, Meggen, Switzerland Volume Nr. 2021/20 Coverage: 01.06.2016 to 24.09.2021 Introduction With over 130 essays written since the launch of the ‘Singularity2030’ website in August 2016, the question often raised is why not writing a book about AI. Well, there are three answers: First, there are already many fascinating and interesting books available, covering various aspects of AI, ranging from technology, sociology, biology, neurology to psychology etc. Second, as AI continuous to develop exponentially, a book focusing on a specific AI-topic is partially outdated once published. Third, authors of AI related books are typically experts in a specific area of interest. As AI is expanding into every segment of human life, one book will hardly match the challenge in providing a general overview about the direction where AI is heading. The goal of the Dynamic Reference Book is to provide a contemporary overview of AI development across the entire socio-economic and technical spectrum based on all essays published. It is updated every two weeks as a new essay is added to the website. The previews (summaries) of the essays make- up the content of the Dynamic Reference Book, providing a means, to easily browse through the AI world without the shortcomings of a static book. Under ‘More…’ each preview can be linked to the essay as originally published. The order of entry in each subchapter is time-descending, contemplating the development of AI over time and leaving room for repetitive coverage

  • When Is It Permissible for Artificial Intelligence to Lie?: a Trust-Based Approach
    When is it permissible for artificial intelligence to lie?: A trust-based approach Tae Wan Kim,∗ Tong (Joy) Lu,† Kyusong Lee,‡ Zhaoqi Cheng,§ Yanhan Tang¶and John Hooker‖ March 16, 2021 Abstract Conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI) used in industry settings can be trained to closely mimic human behaviors, including lying and deception. However, lying is often a necessary part of negotiation. To address this, we develop a normative framework for when it is ethical or unethical for a conversational AI to lie to humans, based on whether there is what we call “invitation of trust” in a particular scenario. Importantly, cultural norms play an important role in determining whether there is invitation of trust across negotiation settings, and thus an AI trained in one culture may not be generalizable to others. Moreover, individuals may have different expectations regarding the invitation of trust and propensity to lie for human vs. AI negotiators, and these expectations may vary across cultures as well. Finally, we outline how a conversational chatbot can be trained to negotiate ethically by applying autoregressive models to large dialog and negotiations datasets. As businesses increasingly utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to make important decisions for humans, societal worries about the compatibility of AI and human values grow (Martin et al., 2019; Martin, 2019b,a; Hooker, 2018; Hooker and Kim, 2019; Kim and Routledge, 2018; Kim and Scheller-Wolf, 2019; Kim and Mejia, 2019). In response, researchers have examined how to make AI learn ethical principles as well as calculative and strategic intelligence (Bhargava and Kim, 2017; Kim et al., 2018, 2020a).

This article explores the philosophical and theological framework for reasoning and decision-making through the lens of science fiction, religion, and artificial intelligence (both real and imagined). In comparing the programming of autonomous machines with human ethical deliberation, we discover that both depend on a concrete ordering of priorities derived from a clearly defined value system. Keywords: ethics; Isaac Asimov; Jesus; Confucius; Socrates; Euthyphro; commandments; robots; artificial intelligence; programming; driverless cars 1. Introduction Ethical reasoning, when it is done effectively, involves prioritizing between competing options. Philosophical thought experiments such as the “trolley problem” highlight the human tendency to avoid making decisions about situations in which there is no good outcome. However, the history of both religion
