This book clarifies the ethical impact of artificial intelligence systems on society and examines their moral standing. To clarify the moral status of AI, it draws on conceptual tools from postphenomenology while introducing new concepts to account for the specificity of AI systems in relation to other technologies. The first part of the book addresses whether some form of intentionality can be attributed to intelligent systems and clarifies what technological intentionality means in the context of AI. The second part investigates the normative profile of the standards and predictions produced by AI, with particular attention to the effects of these standards on processes of human subjectification. The book does not assign moral responsibility to intelligent systems; rather, it evaluates the role they play in distributing responsibility among human actors, thereby demonstrating the integrative character of intelligent systems. In addition to advancing this thesis, the book introduces central problems in the field of AI ethics and intelligent systems, providing a valuable overview of these issues. This book is of interest to advanced scholars and undergraduate students of AI ethics alike.
