本文研究了人工智能在决策中的引入如何增加道德距离，并建议使用关怀伦理来增强对人工智能决策的伦理审查。通过人工智能决策，面对面的互动被最小化，决策是一个更不透明的过程的一部分，人类并不总是理解。在决策研究中，道德距离的概念被用来解释为什么个人会对那些看不见的人做出不道德的行为。道德距离抽象了那些受决策影响的人，并导致较少的道德决策。本文的目标是通过接近距离（在空间、时间和文化上）和官僚距离（源于等级制度、复杂过程和原则）来识别和分析人工智能所产生的道德距离。然后，我们提出了护理伦理作为一个道德框架来分析人工智能的道德含义。在分析算法决策时，护理伦理将环境和背景、相互依存和脆弱性带到最前沿。
This paper investigates how the introduction of AI to decision making increases moral distance and recommends the ethics of care to augment the ethical examination of AI decision making. With AI decision making, face-to-face interactions are minimized, and decisions are part of a more opaque process that humans do not always understand. Within decision-making research, the concept of moral distance is used to explain why individuals behave unethically towards those who are not seen. Moral distance abstracts those who are impacted by the decision and leads to less ethical decisions. The goal of this paper is to identify and analyze the moral distance created by AI through both proximity distance (in space, time, and culture) and bureaucratic distance (derived from hierarchy, complex processes, and principlism). We then propose the ethics of care as a moral framework to analyze the moral implications of AI. The ethics of care brings to the forefront circumstances and context, interdependence, and vulnerability in analyzing algorithmic decision making.
