Description: Zygosity refers to the genetic constitution of an organism, specifically in the context of the genetic variability that may exist between individuals. This term is fundamental in genetics as it describes whether an organism has one or two identical or different alleles for a particular gene. In the realm of artificial intelligence (AI) ethics, zygosity becomes relevant when addressing issues related to privacy and the use of genetic data. The collection and analysis of genetic information can raise ethical dilemmas, especially regarding individual identification and the potential for genetic discrimination. Zygosity not only affects an individual’s health and physical characteristics but can also influence how genetic data is used in AI algorithms. Therefore, it is crucial to consider zygosity in the development of technologies that handle genetic information, ensuring that individual rights are respected and minimizing the risks of biases or misinterpretations in the results generated by AI.
