OK, I saw the hype over OpenAI’s ChatGPT. I thought it would be a bit overrated. Then I types in “What are the ethical obligations of the information worker in today’s data-centric marketplace?” and got the following (my take below):
As an information worker in today’s data-centric marketplace, you have several ethical obligations to consider. These may include:
1. Protecting the privacy and security of the data you handle: This includes ensuring that data is only used for authorized purposes and taking steps to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure.
2. Ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the data: It is important to ensure that the data you handle is accurate and complete, and to take steps to correct any errors or inconsistencies that you discover.
3. Being transparent about how data is collected and used: It is important to be transparent about how data is collected and used, and to be clear about the purpose for which it is being collected.
4. Respecting intellectual property rights: It is important to respect the intellectual property rights of others, including copyrights and trademarks.
5. Avoiding conflicts of interest: It is important to avoid conflicts of interest and to disclose any potential conflicts to your employer or clients.
Overall, as an information worker, it is important to act with integrity and to adhere to ethical standards in order to protect the privacy, security, and rights of individuals and organizations.
MY TAKE: I’d take this as a short answer to any undergrad exam question. It expanded ethical obligations into data transparency, intellectual property, and conflicts of interest. That’s impressive.
