A. Using an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot tool, generate a response to two of the
prompts found in the topic list. Provide a copy of each generated response in your
submission.
A copy of each generated response is attached to this assignment in two separate documents.
B. Use the AI-generated responses to complete the following:
1. Identify one individual privacy issue that was not accounted for in one of the AI-
generated responses.
One privacy issue not previously discussed is the collection of emotional data by modern
devices. Some wearables and smart glasses can read facial expressions and stress signals,
allowing them to guess someone’s feelings without clear consent. This threatens privacy
because it takes away a person’s control over deeply personal information and
undermines the autonomy and dignity protected by the United Nations’ right to privacy.
It also damages trust, since people expect sensitive data to be handled responsibly. When
companies gather emotional information without permission, it risks misuse and unfair
treatment. Protecting this kind of data is essential for maintaining dignity, freedom, and
ethical respect for individuals.
2. Apply one ethical framework to identify one potential solution to a privacy issue in
one of the AI-generated responses.
Using utilitarianism, one privacy issue in the AI-generated responses is that AR and VR
smart glasses can record people without their knowledge. This can harm many
bystanders while only helping a small number of users. A utilitarian solution would be
one that creates the greatest good for the greatest number of people. One such solution
could be to require smart glasses to have a bright, easy-to-see recording light. This
