Here's how you can navigate the evolving career landscape in AI and machine learning as a software engineer.
An often missed aspect of AI ethics is that there is NOT a one-size-fits-all ethical standard. Ethics is highly dependent on the context. An AI model whose purpose is to be a part of a military system needs to be completely obedient to the chain of command, without judging the ethics of those commands. An AI model whose purpose is to generate marketing copy for a company, should absolutely reflect the values of that company, and extoll its virtues, even if the company also has flaws. Pointing out those flaws is not its purpose. An AI model who is deployed in service to a particular church, should always answer reflecting the values and beliefs of that church - even if those beliefs are not in alignment with popular culture.

Your team is overwhelmed by unrealistic AI project timelines. How can you address their concerns effectively?
AI development is research. You have to play with it a lot to get it right. And sometimes what you are trying to do will turn out impossible, or prohibitively expensive. If you try to treat it like traditional software development, then you will certainly fail.
