Dr. Kushwaha joined the Centre for Studies in Science Policy, JNU in 2005 as an MPhil student and completed his PhD in 2015 on "Vulnerability and the Paradigm Shift: Debating India's Disaster Management Framework". He was a bright student and very much dedicated to his research work. He participated in many conferences, seminars and workshops in India and abroad. Dr. Pravin was a well-read person in the area of technology, sustainability and urbanisation. His views and opinions received appreciation from his peers.  
After completing his PhD, he joined JNU Trans disciplinary Research Cluster (JNU-TRCSS) as a post-doctoral researcher and was continuing as South Asia Sustainability Studies Hub and Knowledge Network (SASH&KN) Administrator.

New Book "Artificial Intelligence for a Better Future: An Ecosystem Perspective on the Ethics of AI and Emerging Digital Technologies"

New Book
Artificial Intelligence for a Better Future: An Ecosystem Perspective on the Ethics of AI and Emerging Digital Technologies. by Bernd Carsten Stahl, Springer, 2021, ISBN: 9783030699789.

About the Book: This open access book proposes a novel approach to Artificial Intelligence (AI) ethics. AI offers many advantages: better and faster medical diagnoses, improved business processes and efficiency, and the automation of boring work. But undesirable and ethically problematic consequences are possible too: biases and discrimination, breaches of privacy and security, and societal distortions such as unemployment, economic exploitation and weakened democratic processes. There is even a prospect, ultimately, of super-intelligent machines replacing humans. The key question, then, is: how can we benefit from AI while addressing its ethical problems? This book presents an innovative answer to the question by presenting a different perspective on AI and its ethical consequences. Instead of looking at individual AI techniques, applications or ethical issues, we can understand AI as a system of ecosystems, consisting of numerous interdependent technologies, applications and stakeholders. Developing this idea, the book explores how AI ecosystems can be shaped to foster human flourishing. Drawing on rich empirical insights and detailed conceptual analysis, it suggests practical measures to ensure that AI is used to make the world a better place.

Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Ethics of Technology, Computer Ethics, Information Ethics, Responsible Research and Innovation, Innovation Ecosystem, Engineering Ethics, Corporate Social Responsibility, Open Access

About the author: Bernd Carsten Stahl is Professor of Critical Research in Technology and Director of the Centre for Computing and Social Responsibility at De Montfort University, Leicester, UK. His interests cover philosophical issues arising from the intersections of business, technology, and information. This includes ethical questions of current and emerging ICTs, critical approaches to information systems and issues related to responsible research and innovation.
