Abstract
È utile l’etica per l’intelligenza artificiale?
In un contesto nel quale sembra prevalere, a livello globale, una deregulation riguardo allo sviluppo e all’uso delle tecnologie emergenti, può essere interessante approfondire perché e a quali scopi un approfondimento dei criteri etici del comportamento umano può essere utile in relazione agli ambiti dell’azione dell’IA. L’intervento preciserà la differenza tra approccio giuridico e approccio etico, e delineerà i modi in cui un’etica in relazione ai vari ambiti dell’IA può essere elaborata. Da qui potrà essere ricavata la risposta alla domanda posta nel titolo.

Abstract
Is ethics useful for artificial intelligence?
In a global context in which deregulation appears to be prevailing in the development and use of emerging technologies, it may be worthwhile to explore why, and for what purposes, a deeper examination of the ethical criteria governing human behaviour can be useful with regard to the domains of AI action. The presentation will clarify the distinction between the legal approach and the ethical approach, and outline the ways in which an ethics relating to the various fields of AI can be developed. From this, it will be possible to derive an answer to the question posed in the title.
