Deep learning, a subfield of AI that focuses on training artificial neural networks with
multiple layers, has revolutionized the field. Neural networks have demonstrated exceptional
performance in various domains such as image recognition, natural language processing, and
game playing (LeCun et al. 2015). The development of deep learning algorithms has been
instrumental in achieving breakthroughs in AI applications.
The rapid development of AI raises ethical concerns regarding its impact on society. As
AI systems become more autonomous and capable, questions arise about their decision-making
processes and potential biases (Floridi et al. 2018). Ensuring that AI systems align with human
values and adhere to ethical principles becomes increasingly crucial as their capabilities expand.
The speed of AI development may lead to unintended consequences that are difficult to
predict or control. As AI systems become more complex, they may exhibit behaviors or make
decisions that were not explicitly programmed, leading to unexpected outcomes (Bryson et al.
2017). Ensuring the safety and reliability of AI systems becomes paramount to prevent any
adverse effects on society.
Governments and organizations are recognizing the need for policies and regulations to
govern the development and deployment of AI technologies. Establishing guidelines for
responsible AI development can help ensure that ethical considerations are taken into account
(Russell et al. 2015). Collaboration between policymakers, researchers, and industry experts is
essential to strike a balance between innovation and human control.
