Digital Conscience: Investigating the State of Ethics in CS Curricula in India

Abstract

Contemporary computer science graduates enter a world where numerous profound ethical dilemmas confronting society revolve around computing. Navigating the complexities of today’s technological landscape requires a profound consideration of ethical questions. Deliberations on the kinds of data to be gathered or avoided, the ethical dimensions of algorithmic decision-making, and the role of digital platforms in safeguarding democratic principles are at the forefront of discussions. Additionally, addressing biases in large language models (LLMs), ensuring responsible AI practices, and evaluating the technology industry’s contributions to climate change are pivotal aspects.
