JavaScriptInteractive FictionAI Ethics

Overview

An educational interactive fiction experience that puts players in the role of a product manager at a fintech company developing an AI-powered credit scoring algorithm. Through branching narratives and ethical dilemmas, players explore concepts like algorithmic bias, transparency, fairness, and the social impact of AI systems.

The Problem

Make complex AI ethics concepts accessible and engaging for a general audience through interactive storytelling, rather than traditional academic presentation.

The Approach

Designed a branching narrative structure with multiple decision points and consequences. Implemented an ethical framework scoring system that tracks player choices across different ethical dimensions. Created shareable ending cards that summarise the player's ethical approach.

Outcome

Successfully created an engaging way to explore complex AI ethics topics. The game format makes abstract concepts concrete through real-world scenarios, encouraging reflection on the societal implications of AI systems in finance.
