Abstract

The ethical concerns of AI research and dissemination must be carefully considered in accordance with the large impact of AI on communities and enterprises. This research explores the complicated ethical framework that has been impacted by recent advancements in AI. It examines concerns raised in research and publication through an extensive literature on AI ethics. Researchers, academics, and politicians can address the challenges of AI research and dissemination with the help of this research guide. It highlights the need of guidelines for ensuring responsible and ethical behaviour AI research. This guide is an important resource for AI stakeholders. It promotes an ethical and responsible culture in the rapidly evolving field of AI research and publication.
