3. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 3 CONSCIOUSCODERS Think before you code. “AI and Big Data: Boundless Potential or Serious Threat – What Influence do we Developers have?”
4. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 4 Conscious Coders | The idea Algorithms and Data. • new business segments • opportunities to solve problems • limitations and risks With opportunities, challenges and risks emerge.
5. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 5 Conscious Coders | The idea Society and Decision-makers. • living in a fast-moving world disrupted by innovations • no experience in novel technologies • facing decision towards an uncertain future How to cope with complex technologies that influence the way we live? With opportunities, challenges and risks emerge.
6. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 6 Conscious Coders | The idea Developers. • creating novel technologies • solutions for challenges of Society What impact does our work have and what is our role? How to cope with complex technologies that influence the way we live? With opportunities, challenges and risks emerge.

13. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 13 Student Workshop | Overview
14. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 14 Workshop Group 1 | Delegation of decisions Yes, No, Maybe When algorithms make important decisions
15. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 15 Topic / Core question Recommendation Accountability - Clearly assign legal and moral responsibilities ❖ Emotional satisfaction ❖ Detering developers from being careless Explainability - Institutionalize reviews ❖ cf. DIN norm ❖ cf. GDPR Issue Acceptability Accountability Question of guilt Explainability ≠Transparency Background Which ratio needs which norms? AI Human Decision-making
16. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 16 Workshop Group 2 | Transparency of AI German Angst of artificial intelligence Transparency of AI
17. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 17 Transparency of AI – When do we need it? How can we implement it? German “Angst” AI input data output data
18. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 18 Recommendations: • Certification by independent institutions - training data - factor decomposition • Legal framework - connect AI and law communities • Raise awareness • Notify about AI use Importance of transparency Cost autonomous driving credit score Netflix face recognition kernel parameter clustering components Transparency of AI – When do we need it? How can we implement it?
19. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 19 Due to Transparencyin AI Transparency of AI – When do we need it? How can we implement it?
20. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 20 Workshop Group 3 | Centralized data sets China's "Citizen Score" Today still 2018 or already 1984? – Aspects of centralized data sets
21. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 21 How to Manage Balance of Power in Data-driven Societies? Issue Asymmetric distribution of information related to data → China’s citizen score in Europe as well? Recommendation Technological Solution: • Privacy assistance tools • Personalized privacy settings • Privacy policy analysis • Predictive data value analysis Political Solution: • Mandatory data mining audit (private companies, government) • Reporting on user specific data use (connected to privacy assistance tools) → Combining technological and political measures to achieve more transparency about data collection, distribution and processing → Empower individuals to achieve balance
22. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 22 Workshop Group 4 | Misuse of algorithms AI and algorithms as new dual use goods Can our code be misused?
23. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 23 Which measures could be used to avoid dual usage? Issue: Dual Use Example: Libratus
24. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 24 Which measures could be used to avoid dual usage? Challenges • Global common ground for moral values • Standards • Misuse of code • Unbalanced power Recommendation • Raising awareness • Teaching • Embracing existing standards (IEEE) • Blockchain for verification
25. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 25 Workshop Group 5 | Future development VR, Google Glass and Autonomy How are our lives going to change?
26. Event – 3rd March, 2018 CONSCIOUSCODERS 26 Issue Interaction: - AI actions/decisions understandable for humans? - Humans the weak part of the relationship? Behaviour: - Emotional/ natural behaviour -> how human like? - AI responsibility? Resources: - New job requirements? Possible Recommendations Interaction: - provide explanations for actions/ decisions - segregated environment and collaborations Behaviour: - Measuring scale, Test Scenarios, expert opinions - Legal and society Resources: - new interdisciplinarity Humans and machines working together – How are our workplaces going to change
