- Abstract: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) such as the emergence
of large language models including ChatGPT and DALLE 2 has brought both
opportunities for improving productivity and raised ethical concerns. This
paper investigates the ethics of using artificial intelligence (AI) in
cartography, with a particular focus on the generation of maps using DALLE 2.
To accomplish this, we first create an open-sourced dataset that includes
synthetic (AI-generated) and real-world (human-designed) maps at multiple
scales with a variety settings. We subsequently examine four potential ethical
concerns that may arise from the characteristics of DALLE 2 generated maps,
namely inaccuracies, misleading information, unanticipated features, and
reproducibility. We then develop a deep learning-based ethical examination
system that identifies those AI-generated maps. Our research emphasizes the
importance of ethical considerations in the development and use of AI
techniques in cartography, contributing to the growing body of work on
trustworthy maps. We aim to raise public awareness of the potential risks
associated with AI-generated maps and support the development of ethical
guidelines for their future use.

Benchmarks are seen as the cornerstone for measuring technical progress in Artificial Intelligence (AI) research.
An increasingly prominent research area in AI is ethics, which currently has no set of benchmarks nor commonly accepted way for measuring the 'ethicality' of an AI system.
We argue that it makes more sense to talk about 'values' rather than 'ethics' when considering the possible actions of present and future AI systems.

In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on understanding and mitigating adverse impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on society.
A significant challenge in the design of ethical AI systems is that there are multiple stakeholders in the AI pipeline, each with their own set of constraints and interests.
This position paper outlines some potential ways in which generative artworks can play this role by serving as accessible and powerful educational tools.
