A fascinating must-read for anyone exploring AI, ethics or psychology today. Chris’s clear insights and seasoned experience make this a trusted guide to responsible AI decision-making.
Huw Davies FCIPD, Chair, Artificial Intelligence Apprenticeship Trailblazer Group (Skills England) and Duty Technology Operations Manager, BBC

A well-written and thoughtful book which discusses many issues around ethics, bias, decision making, governance and more, which are becoming increasingly important as AI systems become more powerful, ubiquitous and publicly accepted. AI can reinforce bias, be difficult or impossible to understand and lead to unintended consequences, disregarding cultural and social differences. The author argues convincingly for ‘a moral architecture that’s built in, not bolted on.
Professor Max Bramer CEng FBCS, Chair, BCS Specialist Group on Artificial Intelligence

An insightful journey into AI decision-making, exposing hidden biases, ethical dilemmas, and societal responsibilities. Essential reading for anyone shaping or questioning the future of intelligent technologies.
Raimondo Fanale MBCS, R&D Manager, Intuisco LTD

AI is a reflection of our humanity, and a key piece of that humanity is how we as humans make moral decisions. Chris Ambler’s detailed breakdown of the psychological processes that govern our ethical decision-making is a perspective that has long been overdue in the conversation on AI development.
Olivia Gambelin, Author of Responsible AI

I loved this book. It’s a clear, insightful exploration of how ethics, bias, and context shape AI decisions. It’s an essential reading for leaders navigating the future of intelligent technology.
Gary Shannon, Talent & Community Director, Optimal

This book provides essential knowledge on where we stand with AI, and presents potential future directions and guardrails. A must read for anyone who wants to learn more about creating a safe future with AI.
Mark Barzilay, Founder/Owner, spriteCloud B.V.

This book takes a highly informed approach to what is a fundamental but potentially under-considered aspect of the rapidly expanding field of AI. Chris ties established historical psychological canon to an insightful investigation of deeper ethical themes. This results in a highly thought provoking publication with relevance to a broad range of readers.
