AI Analysis
This addresses a methodological gap in responsible AI research to improve ethical practices, but it is incremental as it builds on existing impact assessment frameworks.
The paper argues that responsible AI research can have unintended adverse consequences, advocating for the adoption of impact statements to address this issue.
All types of research, development, and policy work can have unintended, adverse consequences - work in responsible artificial intelligence (RAI), ethical AI, or ethics in AI is no exception.
