Understanding AI Ethics

Learning about AI technology can help you to gain an understanding of what it can and cannot do, how it can help and the potential risks it poses. We must use AI solutions in a safe and responsible way, taking account of legal considerations, ethics, data protection and privacy, security, and governance.

On this page, you will find access to free courses to help summarise the general risks that come with using Artificial Intelligence, explain the limitations of current AI technologies, and explore the ethical considerations involved in using AI, such as issues of bias, fairness, transparency, and the potential for misuse.
