Although not much work has been done regarding the practical implementations of AI4SG principles for design, initial first steps provide promising ways forward. This presentation proposes that the Value Sensitive Design (VSD) approach to technology design maps symbiotically onto the initially formulated AI4SG principles and that the VSD bolsters these principles by providing designers and engineers a principled approach to incorporating human values into AI systems design. Likewise, it distinguishes several sources of values in AI systems' design that not only aims to design these systems to prevent harm (boundary conditions) but actually contribute to social good. In doing so, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are proposed as these higher-level objectives that AI systems can be designed for. A case study regarding COVID-19 tracking/tracing apps is used to illustrate this approach. In doing so, the VSD approach is argued to be at least one of the most salient ways that designers can adopt as part of their daily practices to ensure safe and beneficial design flows in AI design spaces
