Machine learning exists to aid humans in making decisions, or in some cases, to make decisions automatically. Depending on how they are used, machine learning systems may have major implications for humans and for the world. Chiral Software follows ethical guidelines in its machine learning development.
- Is there a human in the loop? Machine learning should assist humans in making decisions, but it shouldn’t make its own decisions except in very narrow circumstances.
- Does this have implications for non-human life? Machine learning systems must not be used to to harm ecosystems or violate the rights of non-human animals.
