Standardization of AI Ethics: Stakeholders, Values and Profit

The relationship between AI, ethics, societal values and standardization is complex.

They offer a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to AI ethics governance, covering topics such as auditing auditors, deceptive robots, HR perspectives on AI in job hiring, and how existing citizen infrastructures can inform standardization processes for ethical AI applications.
