ethics by design
MADE WITH LOVE BY
Morality focuses on good and evil. It defines
what’s forbidden, accepted or encouraged.
It also establishes rules and norms. They can
be explicit or implicit, depending on the
context (social, religious...).

ethics by design
Ethics is the part of philosophy dealing with
the foundations of morality and is based on
reason. It varies according to cultures and
individuals, and essentially concerns how to
live well with our fellow human beings.

Design, in this case, refers to all types of tangible
and intangible "projects" or "concepts".
Nevertheless, many of the ethical issues it raises deal
with digital technologies. Their sudden appearance, in
addition to the fact that those technologies are in a
virtual, non-physical, world, left a legal and moral void.
Finally, business ethics, without a legal framework, often
doesn’t change much, as long as consumers accept the
product/service as it is.
Beyond design, the ethics of digital technology is also connected
to its uses. Therefore, we need to anticipate them. More precisely,
we must predict how these tools will change individuals and
make new behaviors appear.

Dark mode
Search engine that doesn’t
track its users’ data
A practice of interface design (web page, mobile application,
software, etc.) considered as highly unethical. It intends to mislead
the user to obtain the desired action from them. The dark UX can be
used, for example, to trigger a purchase, a subscription to a
newsletter, or to cause an unintentional click on an ad.
We also need to know if digital key-players would be able to
legislate their own creations. Ethical conflicts, like the one
raging between the GAFAs and the European Union, raise
issues around the governance on the virtual world.

where is the ethics by design?
Many charters, rules and oaths
were created to fill the void.
Holberton-Turing Oath
Like the doctors' Hyppocratic oath, AI
specialists created the Holberton-Turing oath.

OS Ethical Guide
COMPRENSIBLE: A service whose design
is comprehensible means that one can
understand the way it was created.
to anticipate technological impacts, 8 risk zones:
1. Truth, Disinformation, Propaganda
2. Addiction & the Dopamine Economy
3. Economic & Asset Inequalities
4. Machine Ethics & Algorithmic Biases
5. Surveillance State
6. Data Control & Monetization
7. Implicit Trust & User Understanding
8. Hateful & Criminal Actors
Design methodologies, such as design
thinking, perceive the consumer’s need (or
desire), thus propose a framework that
tells the it works. But it hardly
addresses the difficult question of the
it should work in
a certain way.
USABLE: An usable design is ta design
on which one can intervene to modify,
repair, improve or hijack its initial use.
As a member of the data science

I solemnly pledge to dedicate my
