Abstract

In this thesis report, I seek to analyze the codes of conduct that recommend principles for the ethical development of Artificial Intelligence, leading to a twofold target. Firstly, understanding the content of the codes of conduct and correspondingly identifying the ethical principles of AI and secondly, analyze these principles by techno-anthropological methods (combination of theoretical framework and digital methods) to decipher their meaning and outline recommendations on the development of the AI Ethical framework. To outline my recommendations, I am underlining Aristotelian and Foucauldian ethical notions, to identify the practices (ethos), that will assist on the sufficient exercise of ethical principles in the design and development of Artificial Intelligence systems.
