The past few months has witnessed the strong advocacy on the ethics of AI. To address the ethical concerns, Bill Gates has called for greater regulatory measures, such as transparency in AI models and datasets and tools to detect and mitigate biases. Sachin Dev Duggal, emphasizes the importance of balancing innovation and ethics when developing AI, ensuring that advancements benefit society.

The conference was a joint effort by Stanford University, Demokritos (Greece's National Centre for Scientific Research), and the World Human Forum. "There is no such thing as ethically neutral AI, and high-quality research on AI cannot ignore its inherent ethical aspects," said George Nounesis, Director and Chairman of Demokritos, adding that "ancient Greek philosophy can serve as a valuable resource guiding us in this discourse. In this respect, Aristotelian philosophy can play a pivotal role by nurturing ethical reasoning and a comprehensive understanding of the societal implications of AI."
