Artificial intelligence is not the first technology to promise transformation and deliver disruption. The spinning jenny displaced skilled weavers. The atomic bomb redefined geopolitics. Social media reshaped democracy. In each case, societies struggled and often failed to govern the consequences before they became entrenched.

Artificial Intelligence Ethics argues that we cannot afford to repeat those failures.

Across nineteen chapters, Georgios Dimitropoulos deploys a rigorous historical-comparative method, drawing on the Industrial Revolution, the nuclear age, civil rights movements, environmental regulation, and the evolution of weapons governance, to expose recurring patterns in which transformative technologies outpace the institutions designed to govern them.

The result is a diagnostic framework: failure patterns that recur across multiple domains where AI operates, and an Ethical Implementation Architecture that translates ethical principles into organisational practice.

This book is a vital resource for scholars and researchers across AI ethics, philosophy of technology, law, public policy, and business analytics, as well as governance practitioners and policy advisors seeking to bridge the gap between ethical principle and institutional implementation.

This book shows how AI must be governed by learning from what we have already survived.
