As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into everyday decision-making, many fields have begun to rely on algorithms to replace human judgment—from medical diagnosis to criminal sentencing. Yet, when algorithms err or produce bias, who should be held accountable for the consequences? Is it the technology companies that develop these systems, the professionals who ultimately adopt their recommendations, or the governments that fail to regulate them? Please articulate your position on this question of accountability, and cite specific examples from fields such as healthcare, judiciary, or autonomous driving to support your argument.
