Ethics, Opportunities, and Risks with Information Technology

Chapter 12 in Business Efficiency and Ethics, 2015, pp 247-275 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Albert Einstein once said he feared the day that technology will surpass our human interaction; when this happens the world will have a generation of idiots. While that day has not yet arrived, what confronts us at present is a swarm of software challenges and their aftermath. The more sophisticated a software, the greater the opportunities it opens up but also the risks associated with its implementation—from crashes to security.
