The AI Moral Code

What makes a value “canonical” in AI ethics?

Drawing from over 43 seed values and thousands of ethically coded phrases, the latest AI Moral Code update operationalizes Trust, Justice, Privacy, and Autonomy through a rigorous computational lens. Each candidate is analyzed through:

• TF-IDF Stratification
• Sector Normalization
• Contextual Multipliers
• Composite Value Scoring (CVS)

The result is a living architecture of values—relevant, testable, and grounded in real-world ethical use cases. An Ethical Salience Tracker (EST) will soon allow iterative recalibration of the Canon based on legislative, semantic, and cultural shifts.

This marks a transition from ethical theory to value telemetry—placing normative fidelity at the center of machine governance.
