Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Law has transformed and much transfused with other unknown fields in various sciences per se. AI Ethics is one of the emerging fields, where, policy intervention, in line with the idea of multilateralism has emerged merely recently. This emergence is not something pre-decided, but is usually gauged by some countries and some special non-state actors like the UN, for example, and non-state actors, which includes startups, NGOs and civil society actors most of the times. Works such as the Beijing Consensus on AI and Education, 2019, the 2017 Asilomar Conference on Beneficial AI, DARPA's conception of Explainable AI & many more have endorsed a sense of research aptitude and rationalization of the field of AI Ethics in Law, Policy and International Affairs. Our team of research contributors and analysts at the Indian Society of Artificial Intelligence and Law, have therefore at our very best, prepared a Handbook, in two parts, which caters to some important and influential fields of international law, and its synergy with AI Ethics. This handbook, with utmost humility is not some research encyclopedia. It serves to ignite curiosity and make people rethink or think differently about the way we see AI in our lives. It is a researched handbook, which has been edited by Professor Suman Kalani, Chief Research Expert of ISAIL (also the Assistant Professor at the SVKM's Pravin Gandhi College of Law, Mumbai, India), Kshitij Naik, Chief Strategy Advisor of ISAIL, Akash Manwani, Chief Innovation Officer of ISAIL and me. We have tried to give crisp and detailed case studies on various dynamic fields of AI and international governance, which consist in AI & International Affairs, AI & Society, AI & Ecology, AI & Governance & other miscellaneous chapters, such as on Emerging Technologies and Applied Sciences. When you read the book, please do not treat it as some mere answer to all of your questions. Instead, relish the ideas and realities which have been expressed in this work. The chapters reflect some generic notions of international law, which have been widely accepted worldwide, and at the same time, might be an attempt to compel the readers to maybe come up with a reasonable policy intervention per se. We hope the readers would have a suitable time reading this book per se.
