The book “信息科学技术伦理与道德” (Ethics and Morality in Information Science and Technology) is published!

Based on the course of the same name provided in ShanghaiTech, this book comprehensively discusses the potential ethical and social impact of recent technology advancement in information science. Topics include ethical principles, AI decision, big data, privacy, digital identity, etc.

Readers will be guided to consider the relationship between these new technologys and our society. This is important for researchers, developers and engineers to keep in mind of evaluating the possible ethical impact when developing new technology. Meanwhile, the public will also benefit from the contents by appraising the new technology in a rational way, neither over-optimistic nor over pessimistic.

The publish of this book is the last project I participated in ARLab, SEM, ShanghaiTech, where I was involved in discussing the topics, writing example chapters and filling the documents from the publishing house.

The book is published by China Machine Press (机械工业出版社). You can buy it at JD.com, or from other bookstores and shopping platforms.
