AI and Ethics Unveiled: Charting the Future of Applied Behavior Analysis

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes an integral part of our daily lives, researchers within applied behavior analysis (ABA) are paving the way for its potential to revolutionize ABA services. However, amidst the excitement of AI's advances, there's a critical absence in the behavior analytic literature—a conversation around the ethical considerations when developing, building, and deploying AI technologies in ABA settings.

This article serves a dual purpose: firstly, to dissect how existing ethical publications, such as the BACB Code of Ethics, address (or fail to address) the unique ethical concerns posed by the integration of AI in everyday ABA service delivery. Secondly, it raises thought-provoking questions that are essential for informing future ethical guidelines as AI continues to make its mark in the field.

Be part of the conversation that sparks proactive dialogue around the ethical use of AI in ABA. Gain insights into the considerations that may shape the future of ethical guidelines, ensuring that the field is ready for the ethical challenges posed by the ever-evolving landscape of technology.

Join us for this opportunity to be at the forefront of ethical discourse and contribute to shaping the ethical landscape of AI in applied behavior analysis. Don't miss your chance to be part of this forward-thinking conversation!
