Intelligence artificielle : entre promesses et menaces, et l'éthique dans tout ça?

Artificial Intelligence or AI is a field of computing that is increasingly present in our daily lives, from the use of a smartphone or an internet service. It is a set of theories and techniques aimed at creating machines capable of simulating human intelligence.

However, relying on machines and decision support systems, even if it means "augmenting" almost every moment of our lives, raises real questions.

Facial recognition, intelligent assistant, autonomous car, where is artificial intelligence? Will digital progress lead to the replacement of humans by machines for all tasks? Will we let these systems interpret our medical scans or deliver justice? How can we avoid ethical abuses?
