Q. 14. What do you understand by Data Privacy?
A.
The world of Artificial Intelligence revolves around Data. Proper and ethical handling of own data or user data is called data privacy. It is all about the rights of individuals with respect to their personal information. Data privacy or information privacy is a branch of data security concerned with the proper handling of data – consent, notice, and regulatory obligations. More specifically, practical data privacy concerns often revolve around: Whether or how data is shared with third parties


Q. 15. Is data which is collected by various applications ethical in nature? Justify it.
A.
Yes, most of the times, the data collected by various applications is ethical in nature as the users agree to it by clicking on allow when the application asks for various permissions. They ask for our data for various facilities like - to show us personalized recommendations and advertisements and to make their app more accurate and efficient.
OR
No, the data collected by various applications is not always ethical in nature. Sometimes, we just share our data to non – trusted third party applications without reading what happens to our data. This may lead to unethical use of our data. If one does not want to share his/her data with anyone, he/she can opt for alternative applications which are of similar usage and keep the data private. For example, an alternative to WhatsApp is the Telegram app which does not collect any data from us.

Three (03) Mark Questions

Q. 1. What do you understand by AI bias? Discuss in detail with some examples.
A.
AI bias is the underlying prejudice in data that’s used to create AI algorithms, which can ultimately result in discrimination and other social consequences. AI Bias can creep into algorithms in several ways. AI systems learn to make decisions based on training data, which can include biased human decisions or reflect historical or social inequities, even if sensitive variables such as gender, race, or sexual orientation are removed. Amazon stopped using a hiring algorithm after finding it favored applicants based on words like “executed” or “captured” that were more commonly found on men’s resumes, for example. Another source of bias is flawed data sampling, in which groups are over- or underrepresented in the training data.
For Example :
 Majorly, all the virtual assistants have a female voice. It is only now that some companies have understood this bias and have started giving options for male voices but since the virtual assistants came into practice, female voices are always preferred for them over any other voice. Can you think of some reasons for this?
 If you search on Google for salons, the first few searches are mostly for female salons. This is based on the assumption that if a person is searching for a salon, in all probability it would be a female. Do you think this is a bias? If yes, then is it a Negative bias or Positive one?


Q. 2. What do you understand by Data Privacy? Discuss in detail with some examples.
A.
Data privacy, sometimes also referred to as information privacy, is an area of data protection that concerns the proper handling of sensitive data including, notably, personal data but also other confidential data, such as certain financial data and intellectual property data, to meet regulatory requirements as well as protecting the confidentiality and immutability of the data. It focuses on how to collect, process, share, archive, and delete the data in accordance with the law.
Privacy, in the broadest sense, is the right of individuals, groups, or organizations to control who can access, observe, or use something they own, such as their bodies, property, ideas, data, or information. Control is established through physical, social, or informational boundaries that help prevent unwanted access, observation, or use.
For example:
 A physical boundary, such as a locked front door, helps prevent others from entering a building without explicit permission in the form of a key to unlock the door or a person inside opening the door.
 A social boundary, such as a members-only club, only allows members to access and use club resources.
 An informational boundary, such as a non-disclosure agreement, restricts what information can be disclosed to others.


Q. 3. What do you understand by AI, ML & DL?
A.
a) Artificial Intelligence (AI): AI is incorporating human intelligence to machines. Whenever a machine completes tasks based on a set of rules that solve problems (algorithms), such an “intelligent” behavior is what is called artificial intelligence.
b) Machine Learning (ML): ML is a subset of AI that uses statistical learning algorithms to build smart systems. The ML systems can automatically learn and improve without explicitly being programmed.
c) Deep Learning (DL): In Deep Learning, the machine is trained with huge amounts of data which helps it in training itself around the data. Such machines are intelligent enough to develop algorithms for themselves.

Q. 4. Why do apps collect data in our phone?
A.
One of the major sources of data for many major companies is the device which all of us have in our hands all the time: Smartphones. Smartphones have nowadays become an integral part of our lives. Most of us use smartphones more than we interact with people around us. For the facilities that smartphones provide us, Apps need a lot of data which is collected from the user like details about your face, browsing history, or your geographic location, contact list etc. This data is collected with user’s consent which he/she gives at the time of installing an app by clicking on “yes” or “allow” options which clearly means that we ourselves are giving permissions to the Apps.
Permissions by themselves are harmless and even useful to provide users a good mobile experience.
This data is collected to provide us with a lot of facilities and features which have made our lives easier. Another reason to collect the data is to provide us with customized recommendations and notifications according to our choices. One more reason to collect the data is to make their app more accurate and efficient.


Q. 5. Should AI replace laborious jobs? Is there an alternative for major unemployment?
A.
Yes, AI should replace laborious jobs.

● AI can replace laborious jobs like lifting of heavy items, working in mines etc. ● AI can indeed automate most repetitive and physical tasks. ● In future, AI would be a good option in the field of architecture and construction.
OR
No, AI should not replace laborious jobs completely as if it replaces laborious jobs completely, then there will be no source of income for the daily wage workers due to unemployment. So, industry owners can use some machines but more of man power. Hence the production will not get affected as humans are smarter than machines since they were the ones who invented AI.

Is there an alternative for major unemployment?
● AI taking over laborious jobs won’t create unemployment. It is just a groundless fear. The standard view of technical change is that some jobs are displaced by the substitution of machines for labour, but that the fear of total displacement is misplaced because new jobs are created, largely due to the technology-fuelled increase in productivity. Humans have always shifted away from work suitable for machines and to other jobs.
● The basic fact is that technology eliminates jobs, not work. If this level of AI revolution will happen, lots of job opportunities will be created. For example: 20-30 years ago, being an accountant was a lucrative job, but AI took over this job but this created a lot of opportunities, it raised the demand of a software engineer, data scientist, etc.
● It will open doors to skillful jobs rather than doing laborious tasks.
● Thus, we will be able to cope with the level of major unemployment, if AI took over laborious jobs.

Q. 6. As Artificially Intelligent machines become more and more powerful, their ability to accomplish tedious tasks is becoming better. Hence, it is now that AI machines have started replacing humans in factories. While people see it in a negative way and say AI has the power to bring mass unemployment and one day, machines would enslave humans, on the other hand, other people say that machines are meant to ease our lives. If machines over take monotonous and tedious tasks, humans should upgrade their skills to remain their masters always.
What according to you is a better approach towards this ethical concern? Justify your answer.
A.
● AI taking over laborious jobs won’t create unemployment. It is just a groundless fear. The standard view of technical change is that some jobs are displaced by the substitution of machines for labour, but that the fear of total displacement is misplaced because new jobs are created, largely due to the technology-fuelled increase in productivity. Humans have always shifted away from work suitable for machines and to other jobs.
