Dawn of the robots

Artificial Intelligence is advancing at an unprecedented rate, bringing with it transformative potential that excites and concerns many. As AI revolutionizes industries and increasingly shapes daily lives. It is clear that it will become an integral part of our future. However, this rapid evolution raises profound ethical questions that must be addressed to ensure the benefits of AI are realized without compromising fundamental values. One of the most pressing ethical issues surrounding AI is the question of autonomy.

As AI systems become more sophisticated, they are increasingly entrusted with decision-making processes that were once the domain of humans. This shift prompts a fundamental question: to what extent should AI have control over decisions that affect individuals and society? For instance, in autonomous vehicles. AI must make split-second decisions that could impact lives. The ethical dilemma here lies in determining the criteria for these decisions and ensuring they align with societal values.
