In today’s management world, Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based decision-making systems are evolving rapidly. By analyzing massive amounts of data and making swift, accurate decisions, these systems have significantly boosted organizational efficiency. However, in these data-driven decision-making processes, there is a risk that value-based elements—such as ethics, humanity, and social responsibility—may be neglected. Challenges like algorithmic bias, transparency deficits, and accountability gaps in AI systems further confirm this concern.
In this context, the Ethical Governance principles presented in the ancient Tamil ethical treatise, Thirukkural, possess the potential to provide value-based guidance for AI-driven administrative decision-making. This research paper examines the fundamental principles of virtue, justice, integrity, responsibility, and compassion emphasized by Thiruvalluvar, exploring how they can be integrated into AI management systems.
AI systems can only emerge as ethical, responsible, and Human-Centric when a humanitarian foundation is added to their purely data-driven decision-making. The concept of "Thick Alignment" emphasizes that AI systems should not merely comply with superficial regulations but should operate by deeply understanding human values. Thirukkural’s ethical management principles provide the foundation for such deep understanding.
This study serves as a bridge between traditional wisdom and modern technology, highlighting opportunities for future AI administrative decision-making systems to become more humane and ethical. Through this, a new management philosophy of "Technology with Humanity"—combining technological capability with the values of Thirukkural—will emerge.
