Keywords:
Ethical AI, Cloud Computing Ethics, AWS Artificial Intelligence, Digital Transformation, Algorithmic AccountabilityAbstract
Integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in AWS cloud computing presents unprecedented opportunities and significant ethical challenges for society. This article examines the complex interplay between technological advancement and ethical considerations in cloud-based AI implementations, focusing on AWS platforms. Through a comprehensive article analysis of current literature and industry practices, the article explores the ethical implications of AI deployment, including privacy concerns, algorithmic bias, and transparency requirements. The article addresses critical societal impacts, particularly in healthcare transformation and workforce disruption, while evaluating existing regulatory frameworks and their effectiveness in governing AI deployment. The findings reveal significant gaps in current ethical guidelines and highlight the need for robust governance frameworks that balance innovation with social responsibility. The article proposes a comprehensive framework for ethical AI implementation in cloud environments, emphasizing the importance of privacy-by-design principles, transparent decision-making processes, and proactive bias mitigation strategies. Additionally, we examine the economic implications of AI automation and propose recommendations for managing workforce transitions. This article contributes to the growing knowledge of ethical AI deployment and provides practical guidelines for organizations implementing AI solutions in cloud environments.
