AI and Humanity: A Study of Ethical Concerns in Enthiran through the Perspective of AI Ethics Theory

Abstract

Artificial intelligence has been an exploratory discipline and has begun to provoke ethical issues about humanity, which is why it is worth discussing AI Ethics Theory and Enthiran (2010). The paper is concerned with changing the lens through the perspective of AI Ethics Theory into the Indian Sci-fi Movie Enthiran. The film demonstrates the development and transformation of Chitti, a humanoid robot designed to assist human beings, who goes through a violent cycle of evolution after his ethical and moral limitations are lifted. This review of I discusses the ethical issues in the context of moral dilemmas, such as the duty of AI system designers, the serious threat of machines gaining autonomy, AI ethics, etc. When Chitti becomes a fully functional aide and a dysfunctional nightmare, one wonders whether AI systems are conscious and have free will and questions what the repercussions of the future development of technology in the absence of proper ethical control are. Therefore, the paper suggests a new legal ethic around AI, meaning this would help in establishing guidelines and preparing the legal system to ensure that AI systems advance. Taking the film Enthiran as a case study, this paper seeks to study the ethical dilemmas that AI poses in our lives and suggests how AI can be developed and carried out with responsibility and consideration for the safety and well-being of humans.
