  Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems exert a growing influence on our
society. As they become more ubiquitous, their potential negative impacts also
become evident through various real-world incidents. Following such early
incidents, academic and public discussion on AI ethics has highlighted the need
for implementing ethics in AI system development. However, little currently
exists in the way of frameworks for understanding the practical implementation
of AI ethics. In this paper, we discuss a research framework for implementing
AI ethics in industrial settings. The framework presents a starting point for
empirical studies into AI ethics but is still being developed further based on
its practical utilization.
