Getting Started with EthDevOps
Get started with EthDevOps: practical steps to integrate ethics into your DevOps pipeline without slowing down your releases. Build trust, avoid pitfalls, and ship responsibly.
Creating an Ethical Culture in DevOps Teams
Building ethical software isn’t just about code quality or security. It’s about fostering a culture where ethical thinking is second nature and where doing the right thing is celebrated as much as shipping on time. An ethical culture empowers developers to voice concerns, consider broader impacts, and prioritize transparency, even under pressure.
Mimicry and Machines: What AI Can Learn from Babies (and What It Can’t)
AI learns like a baby—by mimicry. But where children evolve meaning, AI stays stuck predicting what sounds right. This post explores how large language models echo human learning (and where they fall short), blending humor, philosophy, and ethics into a guide for raising smarter, safer machines in a digital world.
Ethical Impact Assessments
Ethical Impact Assessments (EIAs) are structured reviews designed to uncover, evaluate, and address potential ethical, social, and environmental consequences of a system before and after it is built. In the EthDevOps model, EIAs are not bureaucratic formalities—they are lightweight, actionable tools that help teams make informed decisions and maintain public trust.
Building Trust Through Transparency in Technology
Transparency isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the foundation of trustworthy technology. Discover how open communication, explainable AI, and ethical DevOps practices build lasting user trust.
Ethical Decision-Making Frameworks
Software development often involves navigating complex decisions with ethical implications. These choices can impact privacy, inclusivity, safety, and trust. To help teams make informed and consistent choices, EthDevOps promotes the use of ethical decision-making frameworks. These frameworks guide discussions, document rationale, and help surface unintended consequences before they occur.
Embedding Ethics into DevOps Workflows
EthDevOps extends the DevOps culture by embedding ethical thinking directly into the software development lifecycle. Instead of treating ethics as an afterthought or external review, teams should integrate ethical checkpoints alongside testing, security, and performance. This chapter outlines practical ways to make ethics a seamless part of everyday DevOps practice.
Common Ethical Challenges in Technology
Technology can be a powerful force for good — but without conscious oversight, it can also cause harm. As systems grow more complex and autonomous, ethical challenges are no longer rare exceptions; they are recurring patterns that surface in almost every domain of software development. This chapter outlines some of the most common ethical issues…
The Five Core Principles of EthDevOps
EthDevOps is grounded in five guiding principles that embed ethical thinking into every stage of the software lifecycle. These principles provide a framework for building systems that are not only functional and secure but also socially responsible and trustworthy.
EthDevOps vs. DevOps & DevSecOps
EthDevOps is not about slowing down innovation. It’s about making sure the things we build are not only efficient and secure—but also just, inclusive, and worthy of the trust users place in us
