Join us to learn from ethics fellow Armin Moin, a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor in the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences; as we dive deep into the ethics surrounding the use of AI as a tool.   AI is increasingly becoming an essential tool and a key element of competitiveness in almost every domain. However, nearly everywhere, it is a double-edged sword. This raises some key questions, concerns, and dilemmas, which may not be easy to understand and judge. In this talk, we want to discuss several illustrative cases that we may face in our daily lives, including in teaching and research in academia, and look at them from the lens of ethical principles. We hope to deploy the Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative (DFEI) principle-based ethics framework through a practical methodic approach to help us benefit from AI and mitigate its risks.   DFEI Ethics Roundtables are lectures or workshops featuring faculty and staff who have been selected as Ethics Fellows.  Roundtables are held throughout the academic year, and are open to all UCCS faculty, staff, Southern Colorado Ethics Consortium schools and interested students.  This event provides an opportunity to share best practices, classroom experiences, subject specific course materials, and address specific concerns. Roundtables provide UCCS faculty and staff along with invited guests the opportunity to hear about how others teach ethics and implement principle-based ethics in their work or area of expertise.   Breakfast is provided.   Registration coming soon.Hosted by: Daniels Fund Ethics Initiative Collegiate Program at UCCSAdditional Information can be found at: https://mlc.uccs.edu/event/10340233
