AI Ethics & Responsible Use of Generative AI

About this course

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.

Generative AI is changing how we work, learn, create, communicate, and make decisions. But using these systems responsibly requires more than knowing how to write a good prompt.

This course provides a practical introduction to AI ethics and the responsible use of generative AI. You will learn how to recognize important risks, evaluate AI-generated content critically, and make better decisions about when and how these tools should be used.

The course explores bias and fairness, including how unequal patterns can appear in generated text, images, recommendations, translations, and automated assistance. You will examine AI hallucinations and reliability, learning why confident AI-generated answers are not necessarily accurate and how important claims should be verified.

You will also explore synthetic media, AI-generated images and audio, privacy and meaningful consent, intellectual property and attribution, and the responsible use of AI in education and the workplace.

Rather than treating AI ethics as a collection of abstract principles, the course focuses on practical situations and decisions. You will learn how to identify potential harms, consider who may be affected, determine when human oversight is necessary, and apply appropriate safeguards.

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Recognize common ethical risks associated with generative AI.Identify bias and potentially unfair AI-generated outputs.
• Evaluate AI-generated claims and verify important information.
• Understand the risks associated with hallucinations and synthetic media.
• Consider privacy, consent, ownership, and attribution.
• Apply human oversight according to the potential consequences of an AI-assisted decision.
• Use a practical framework for more responsible AI use.<
