Kiener, MaximilianMaximilianKiener2024-12-052024-12-052024-09-12Journal of Applied Philosophy 42 (1): 357-374 (2024)https://hdl.handle.net/11420/52202The best-performing AI systems, such as deep neural networks, tend to be the ones that are most difficult to control and understand. For this reason, scholars worry that the use of AI would lead to so-called responsibility gaps, that is, situations in which no one is morally responsible for the harm caused by AI, because no one satisfies the so-called control condition and epistemic condition of moral responsibility. In this article, I acknowledge that there is a significant challenge around responsibility and AI. Yet I don't think that this challenge is best captured in terms of a responsibility gap. Instead, I argue for the opposite view, namely that there is responsibility abundance, that is, a situation in which numerous agents are responsible for the harm caused by AI, and that the challenge comes from the difficulties of dealing with such abundance in practice. I conclude by arguing that reframing the challenge in this way offers distinct dialectic and theoretical advantages, promising to help overcome some obstacles in the current debate surrounding ‘responsibility gaps’.en1468-593020241357374Wileyhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/MLE@TUHHComputer Science, Information and General Works::004: Computer SciencesJournal Articlehttps://doi.org/10.15480/882.1376710.1111/japp.1276510.15480/882.13767Journal Article
