These similarities refer to the authors’ painful and lonely labor of word-smithery, ne- glected spouses who soldiered through this ordeal, children who suffered greatly from the lack of attention and whose development may have been temporarily impaired. This is duly noted. Addition- ally, the author recognizes Ethics Press International, its publisher Sarah Palmer, and editor Amanda Briggs, for sharing the need to establish ethical standards. vii CONTENTS Acknowledgement ..................................................................................v Table of Contents ...................................................................................vii Foreword: Annotated Table of Contents ...........................................ix Prologue ...............................................................................................xiv Chapter 1 Welcome to Industrial Revolutions ................................1 Chapter 2 Which Ethical Framework?

Artificial Intelligence invades people’s lives, motivated perhaps by good intentions but having possibly bad outcomes. What are our defenses and responses? First, we do not have to invent an entirely new ethic regime for the 4th industrial revolution. We should start by looking back. Aristotle told us that rule-based reasoning leads to good decisions, which clearly defines machine learning. The second is to recall how Artificial Intelligence became a discipline; it was discovered and defined by private ini- tiatives from academia and industry. It happened through personal leadership from John McCarthy, Marvin Minsky, Claude Shannon, and others. Private enterprises are needed again. Selected ideas from DaVinci, Hobbes, Descartes, Hume, and Mills can guide Artificial Intelligence ethics today. A Dartmouth-type conference would be a good start, a digital Breton Woods even better on a larger scale. 2 Which Ethical Framework? Pick one! There are many regulators with a legitimate mandate to regulate. Many others love to control and see their agenda expressed in the form of guidelines. The candidates are GDPR General Data Protec- tion Regulation; OECD Organization of Economic Development; EC European Commission; The White House; CCPA California Con- sumer Privacy Act; G-20 the 19+1, EU countries; UN the United Na- tions; the COE Council of Europe; the WTO World Trade Organiza- tion; ITU International Telecommunication Union, and many more. The GDPR and the State of California have unsynchronized privacy enforcement rules, which are challenging to comply with for international firms.
