​Ethics Olympiad
Empowering Future Leaders in AI Ethics
AI is transforming our lives at an unprecedented pace. As AI applications become widespread, ethical issues are increasingly coming to the forefront. We invite you to join this tournament on AI ethics and explore the future of AI with us!
​
The Ethics Olympiad, an event characterized by competition and cooperation, offers a unique opportunity to develop students' critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills in the context of modern technological advancements. The event encourages students to engage in thoughtful deliberation on ethical issues, reflecting the intricate moral and political interactions within our increasingly digital society. Each year, relevant and age-appropriate ethical cases, often focusing on contemporary technological dilemmas, are released to assist coaches in preparing their students for the event. This tournament differentiates itself from traditional debates by allowing students to advocate for beliefs they genuinely uphold, rather than assigned opposing positions.
