   Ethical AI Risks

   "In the context of ethical AI risks, two risks are of particular importance. First, AI systems may lack a legitimate ethical basis in establishing rules that greatly influence society and human relationships (Wirtz & Müller, 2019). In addition, AI-based discrimination refers to an unfair treatment of certain population groups by AI systems.
