In the age of rapidly evolving technology, artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the landscape of education. As educators, it's imperative that we navigate this transformation with ethical consciousness. The Rome Call, a set of principles for AI development, offers a beacon of guidance for ensuring AI serves humanity and promotes human dignity.

Key Principles of the Rome Call

Transparency and Explainability: AI systems should be understandable to foster trust and accountability.
Responsibility and Accountability: Developers and users of AI must be held responsible for their actions.
Privacy and Data Protection: AI should respect individual privacy and data rights.
Inclusion and Non-Discrimination: AI should be accessible to all and avoid biases.
Security and Safety: AI should be developed and used in a way that safeguards security and safety.
