COURSES

The course addresses the main ethical and regulatory issues related to AI, including the European AI Act, moral dilemmas (e.g., autonomous driving), and the political implications of AI systems. Participants will develop the ability to assess the ethical impact of technologies, critically distinguish myths and misleading narratives, and promote the responsible adoption of AI in line with fundamental rights.

 

Artificial Intelligence for Business

The course addresses the main ethical, political, and legal issues related to AI, with particular attention to the myth of artificial intelligence ethics, the political properties of information systems, and Italian and European regulations on AI. The conceptual analysis will be accompanied by the discussion of concrete cases. Participants will thus develop the ability to recognize fallacies, myths, and misleading narratives — which lead to the hasty adoption of immature products — and to identify realistic automation pathways that comply with fundamental rights.
