I recently finished Bruce Holsinger’s Culpability, a novel that makes the abstract debate around AI ethics deeply personal. The story’s central dilemma: a family is in a fatal accident in their AI-powered self-driving car after the teenage son jerks the wheel. It also turns out the mother, Lorelei, designed the car’s algorithm. Holsinger shows how impossible it is to untangle fault when technology and human lives intersect.
While the book has many layers, it raises a crucial question for our own lives: what is our role in shaping AI’s impact?
