Descriptif

This course aims to develop students' reflexive abilities on the issues raised by the integration of new digital technologies (including Artificial Intelligence and Generative AI) into products and services developed by organizations. The aim of the course is for students to master the concepts and methods to conduct ethical reflection in the management of new digital products and services. The course will address several questions: What is ethics? How to conduct ethical reflection on new technologies (tensions, dilemmas, deliberation)? How to identify controversies? What are the different ethics (normative, applied, meta-ethical)? What are the major ethical questions that managers developing new digital and AI services must ask themselves? What are the tensions and best practices of responsible management of digital technologies?
