L3: AI Ethics, Bias & Society

by bam

AI systems now help decide who gets a loan, a job interview, or a longer prison sentence, and they can quietly encode human bias while sounding neutral. This literacy-level course (no coding required) explains what "AI ethics" actually means, where bias comes from, why there is no single definition of "fair," who is accountable when AI causes harm, and how AI reshapes work, democracy, and the planet. You leave able to use and question these systems responsibly. Cited throughout (NIST, UNESCO, the EU AI Act, the ACM Code of Ethics, and the open Fairness and Machine Learning textbook).
