Laws, Ethics, and Fairness in Software Engineering

Software engineering in the era of generative AI, large data sets and superfast pace of software development often tends to focus on technology, tools and methods, putting aside us, software engineers. In this column, we focus on softer aspects of software engineering and report from two conferences: 28th International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE 2024) and 18th ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2024). The selection of papers provides a glimpse on handling privacy, documenting ethical considerations in AI models and trustworthy AI.

Abstract

Software engineering in the era of generative AI, large data sets and superfast pace of software development often tends to focus on technology, tools and methods, putting aside us, software engineers. In this column, we focus on softer aspects of software engineering and report from two conferences: 28th International Conference on Evaluation and Assessment in Software Engineering (EASE 2024) and 18th ACM/IEEE International Symposium on Empirical Software Engineering and Measurement (ESEM 2024). The selection of papers provides a glimpse on handling privacy, documenting ethical considerations in AI models and trustworthy AI.
