All students must be equipped to critically engage with the social, moral, and legal impacts of AI technologies. For computer science/Artificial intelligence students, ethical knowledge ensures that they design and deploy AI systems responsibly, keeping fairness, transparency, and human well-being at the core. Students who have not taken up Computer Science or Artificial Intelligence as a subject can be future professionals, leaders, and citizens whose understanding of AI ethics fosters informed decision-making, digital literacy, and the ability to question and influence how AI is used in their fields and communities.
