1ETHICAL ANALYSISThe ethical question linked to Artificial Intelligence is how privacy co-exists with poweredsensors of artificial intelligence. The question that arises is how privacy has a chance of gettingcompromised in cases of dealing with artificial intelligence.a)The central concept of ethical question is that privacy can be jeopardized in cases ofartificial intelligence and that when large data is used, they need to be protected andpreserved and that is the central theme of the ethical question. The virtues that isrelevant in the present context are- ingenuity, precision and emotion neutrality (Russeland Norvig 2016). Ingenuity is an important aspect of creating something new. Theidea behind artificial intelligence is an innovative mind which is genuine and has notbeen applied anywhere. Another virtue is precision which is why artificial intelligencelike robotics is essential because proper and accurate data analysis is imperative in suchcases. To carry out the mundane tasks, emotion is an impediment. Robotics is directlyrelated to minimising human emotions (Nilsson 2014). b)Carrying out skilful task is the act central to the ethical question. As long as skill isapplied in artificial intelligence, there shall be unstoppable growth in the area ofrobotics. The morality attached to skill is that there shall be development and growthand a high rise in accuracy (Cohen and Feigenbaum 2014). The acumen required tocarry out any skilful task is the morality central to the ethical question. Inunderstanding skill and acumen, it is important to know that ingenuity, precision andemotional neutrality is a pre-requisite in having a better understanding of the ethicalquestion. c)Kant’s categorical imperative- The Kant’s theory of categorical imperative is derivedfrom the deontological moral theory, which says that any right or wrong is not

Hebelieved in a supreme theory of morality and was guided by the principles of right andwrong. The specific rule attached to the ethical question is whether privacy is asupreme moral element or not. The important fact to check is whether moralitycan be understood independently or in connection with the preservation ofprivacy.The general rule applicable to the ethical question is whether privacyshould beprotected and if yes, is the infringement of privacy similar to moral breach?The general rule is whether privacy breach tantamount to breach of moraldecree. Data protection is an inherent and important task in relation to artificialintelligence and therefore, in considering whether privacy should be consideredan element of supreme morality, it is important to know that privacy breach is aresultant of failure to protect data. This questions the fundamental ethicalquestion and therefore, the general rule does not contradict the ethical questionand cannot be said to be self contradictory (Kant 2016). The practical imperative is an absolute moral high ground taken by Kant to saythat the consequences do not matter and that emphasis has to be placed on theduties of men carrying the activity. In this case, the general rule does not violateany of Kant’s absolute stands on morality because the central theme of the ethic
