We argue that the phenomena of distributed responsibility, induced acceptance, and acceptance through ignorance constitute instances of imperfect delegation when tasks are delegated to computationally-driven systems. Imperfect delegation challenges human accountability. We hold that both direct public accountability via public transparency and indirect public accountability via transparency to auditors in public organizations can be both instrumentally ethically valuable and required as a matter of deontology from the principle of democratic self-government. We analyze the regulatory content of 16 guideline documents about the use of AI in the public sector, by mapping their requirements to those of our philosophical account of accountability, and conclude that while some guidelines refer to processes that amount to auditing, it seems that the debate would benefit from more clarity about the nature of the entitlement of auditors and the goals of auditing, also in order to develop ethically meaningful standards with respect to which different forms of auditing can be evaluated and compared.

Rebuilding Trust: Queer in AI Approach to Artificial Intelligence Risk Management
值得信赖的人工智能(AI)已经成为一个重要的话题,因为对AI系统及其创造者的信任已经丧失。研究人员、企业和政府长期以来都有将边缘化群体排除在技术开发、部署和监督之外的痛苦历史。因此,这些技术对少数群体用处不大,甚至有害。我们认为,任何渴望信任的人工智能开发、部署和监控框架都必须结合女权主义、非剥削性的参与式设计原则,以及强大的、外部的、持续的监控和测试。我们还解释了在透明度、公平性和问责制之外考虑可信度的重要性,特别是考虑正义和将权力转移给被剥夺权力的人,作为任何值得信赖的人工智能系统的核心价值。创建值得信赖的人工智能首先要资助、支持和授权像Queer in AI这样的草根组织,以便人工智能领域具有多样性和包容性,从而可信且有效地开发值得信赖的人工智能。我们利用人工智能中的酷儿通过多年的工作和宣传发展起来的专家知识,讨论性别,性行为和酷儿身份的其他方面是否以及如何在数据集和人工智能系统中使用,以及如何减轻这些方面的危害。在此基础上,我们分享了一种性别化的人工智能方法,并进一步提出了一种奇怪的认识论,并分析了它可以给人工智能带来的好处。我们还讨论了如何用这种奇怪的认识论来规范人工智能,提出了制定与人工智能和性别多样性以及隐私和奇怪的数据保护相关的政策的框架。
