Abstract(s)

Over the last decade, investment in artificial intelligence (AI) has grown significantly, driven by technology companies and the demand for PhDs in AI. However, new challenges have emerged, such as the ‘black box’ and bias in AI models. Several approaches have been developed to reduce these problems. Responsible AI focuses on the ethical development of AI systems, considering social impact. Fair AI seeks to identify and correct algorithm biases, promoting equitable decisions. Explainable AI aims to create transparent models that allow users to interpret results. Finally, Causal AI emphasizes identifying cause-andeffect relationships and plays a crucial role in creating more robust and reliable systems, thereby promoting fairness and transparency in AI development. Responsible, Fair, and Explainable AI has several weaknesses. However, Causal AI is the approach with the slightest criticism, offering reassurance about the ethical development of AI.
