Abstract

This paper explores the challenges and opportunities presented by Artificial Intelligence for the (meta)virtue of integrity. Despite a vast literature on integrity within philosophy, religion, and other fields, there is little consensus regarding what it is and how it applies to unique test cases presented by AI. I will address this gap by applying a new framework for integrity, which introduces three directions of integration (integration of the world to the self, integration of the self to the world, and internal integration). Using this framework, I show that many of the problems raised by current uses of AI stem from conflicts between and within the three forms of integrity. I suggest some solutions by drawing on virtue theoretical traditions and “designing for virtue” approaches within the fields of Human Computer Interaction and User Experience.
