Abstract

The field of artificial intelligence has recently encountered some ethical questions associated with the future of humankind. Although it is a common question that has been asked for years, the existence of humankind against badly configured intelligent systems is more important nowadays. As a result of rapid developments in intelligent systems and their increasing role in our life, there is a remarkable anxiety about dangerous artificial intelligence. Because of that, some research interests gathered under some topics like machine ethics, future of artificial intelligence, and even existential risks are drawing researchers' interest. As associated with this state, the objective of this chapter is to examine ethical factors in using intelligent systems for biomedical-engineering-oriented purposes. The chapter firstly gives essential information about the background and then considers possible scenarios that may require ethical adjustments during design and development of artificial-intelligence-oriented systems for biomedical engineering problems.
