Working Bibliography

These are my sources so far:

1. Lubars and Tan, both from the University of Chicago Boulder present a paper which attempts to begin answering the question of what AI should do for us or, as they put it in the paper, AI task delegability. They do this by first deciding on 4 factors which they think contribute the most to our deciding if a task should be fully automated or not (motivation, difficulty, risk, trust) and then administering a survey about how comfortable participants would be with AI performing a specific task. They find that trust is the most important factor in how automated a task should be and also that, on average, we prefer a level of automation which puts humans in the leading role, with AI assisting. This text is definitely an exhibit piece, but I think it could also work as a context one depending on what conclusion I come to about my paper as I begin to work on it. This paper also has a section on related work which is helpful specifically regarding papers which talk about the role of trust, risk, and uncertainty when considering what AI should do for us.

2. Buiten, Miriam C. “Towards intelligent regulation of artificial intelligence.” European Journal of Risk Regulation 10.1 (2019): 41-59.

3. Huang et al. from institutions including the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Hong Kong Polytechnic University, provide a broad overview of AI ethics, their paper lays out ethical concerns in AI, such as fairness, accountability, transparency, and privacy, while also addressing challenges in implementing ethical AI frameworks. For me, section 3, on ethical issues and risks of AI is the most important. I think this is really a context piece since it lays out the current thought on what we should allow AI to do. This paper doesn’t really contribute anything new, but it does a good job of keeping the current discourse around the ethics of AI in one place. It also has a massive bibliography which is helpful for further research.

I actually think 5 is my best source I just haven’t made an annotation for it yet. The title isn’t indicative of much but the paper goes into what we lose by letting AI do things for us, which is great for me.
