AI ETHICAL SELF-REGULATION: DO THE AI ACTORS NEED THEIR OWN HIPPOCRATIC OATH?
The article considers aspects of ethical regulation in the field of artificial intelligence compared to the system of self-regulation in biomedicine. The riskiness and unpredictability of the large-scale use of artificial intelligence systems make us think about the mechanisms of self-restraint and the nature of the obligation in the developed AI ethics. The central element of self-regulation in medicine is the concept of professional duty, and professional activity itself is deontological in nature. The emergence of the Hippocratic oath as the source of regulation of relations in medicine and the fact that it retains its significance to this day is not accidental. The deontological status of the profession and the normative form of protection make up a special value status of the subject of regulation, which is what human life is in medicine. In moral systems, the imperativeness of norms and the demand for a regulatory function is determined by the degree of significance of the values that require protection. Modern transformations in the world of medicine, associated with the use of new technologies, and changing the usual ideas about the boundaries of life and death, have led to the emergence of bioethics - a new form of ethical regulation. The bioethics and ethics of AI are developing in line with the general trend of "ethnicization" of the modern world. The tradition of self-regulation in medicine and the principles of bioethics can be applied in the field of AI. The use of the principles of bioethics in the Code of Ethics of Russia in the field of AI is traced. The fundamental values that are at risk in the field of AI are the autonomy and subjectivity of the human personality. At all stages from development to implementation and promotion of artificial intelligence the actors need to form an important competence as professional duty. The content of the debt is based on normative obligations that have the nature of self-restraint and imperative. There are differences between institutional regulation, which is feasibly in medicine, and ethical regulation in a distributed and transitive community of actors such as developers, users, administrators, and those involved in the promotion. In a situation where the institutional framework does not have organizational formalization, performatives like oaths, systems of rules, and codes of ethics, which are voluntarily accepted by all participants from the development to the use of AI, become regulators.
