Book Faire la morale aux robots

Download or read book Faire la morale aux robots written by Martin Gibert and published by Climats. This book was released on 2021-04-07T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Une voiture pilotée par une intelligence artificielle est face à un choix tragique : pour éviter un enfant qui traverse la route, elle doit écraser un vieillard sur le bas-côté. Que faire, qui sauver dans l’urgence ? Voilà un dilemme qui rappelle la fameuse expérience de pensée du tramway, et qui illustre les enjeux moraux de l’intelligence artificielle. Comment programmer nos robots – de transport, militaires, sexuels ou conversationnels – pour qu’ils prennent les bonnes décisions lorsqu’ils sont confrontés à des choix ? Quelle morale pour les robots ? Y en a-t-il, comme nous, de bons et de mauvais ? S’intéresser à l’éthique des algorithmes, c’est plonger au cœur de nos différentes intuitions et théories morales, questionner nos biais et préjugés, mais aussi explorer un nouveau domaine de la philosophie, expliqué avec clarté et humour par Martin Gibert, chercheur en éthique de l’intelligence artificielle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les véhicules autonomes, assistants virtuels et autres systèmes d'intelligence artificielle sont conçus pour prendre eux-mêmes des décisions. Alors qu'ils sont appelés à occuper une place grandissante dans nos vies, nous devons nous demander en fonction de quels principes moraux nous voulons les programmer, ce qui soulève des questions inédites. Qu'est-ce qu'un agent moral artificiel? Existe-t-il de bons et de mauvais robots? Et s'il est vrai que les machines reflètent les valeurs de ceux qui les conçoivent, comment éviter de reproduire certains biais et préjugés?.

Book Roboethics

Download or read book Roboethics written by Spyros G. Tzafestas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-27 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the ethical questions that arise in the development, creation and use of robots that are capable of semiautonomous or autonomous decision making and human-like action. It examines how ethical and moral theories can and must be applied to address the complex and critical issues of the application of these intelligent robots in society. Coverage first presents fundamental concepts and provides a general overview of ethics, artificial intelligence and robotics. Next, the book studies all principal ethical applications of robots, namely medical, assistive, socialized and war roboethics. It looks at such issues as robotic surgery, children-robot and elderly-robot therapeutical/social interactions and the use of robots, especially autonomous lethal ones, in warfare. In addition, a chapter also considers Japanese roboethics as well as key intercultural and robot legislation issues. Overall, readers are provided with a thorough investigation into the moral responsibility (if any) of autonomous robots when doing harm. This volume will serve as an ideal educational source in engineering and robotics courses as well as an introductory reference for researchers in the field.

Book Artificial Morality

    Book Details:
  • Author : Peter Danielson
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2002-03-11
  • ISBN : 1134901356
  • Pages : 258 pages

Download or read book Artificial Morality written by Peter Danielson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-03-11 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of artificial intelligence in the development of a claim that morality is person-made and rational. Professor Danielson builds moral robots that do better than amoral competitors in a tournament of games like the Prisoners Dilemma and Chicken. The book thus engages in current controversies over the adequacy of the received theory of rational choice. It sides with Gauthier and McClennan, who extend the devices of rational choice to include moral constraint. Artificial Morality goes further, by promoting communication, testing and copying of principles and by stressing empirical tests.

Book Robot Ethics

Download or read book Robot Ethics written by Mark Coeckelbergh and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2022-09-06 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the ethical questions that arise from our use of industrial robots, robot companions, self-driving cars, and other robotic devices. Does a robot have moral agency? Can it be held responsible for its actions? Do humans owe robots anything? Will robots take our jobs? These are some of the ethical and moral quandaries that we should address now, as robots and other intelligent devices become more widely used and more technically sophisticated. In this volume in the MIT Press Essential Knowledge series, philosopher Mark Coeckelbergh does just that. He considers a variety of robotics technologies and applications—from robotic companions to military drones—and identifies the ethical implications of their use. Questions of robot ethics, he argues, are not just about robots but, crucially and importantly, are about humans as well. Coeckelbergh examines industrial robots and their potential to take over tasks from humans; “social” robots and possible risks to privacy; and robots in health care and their effect on quality of care. He considers whether a machine can be moral, or have morality built in; how we ascribe moral status; and if machines should be allowed to make decisions about life and death. When we discuss robot ethics from a philosophical angle, Coeckelbergh argues, robots can function as mirrors for reflecting on the human. Robot ethics is more than applied ethics; it is a way of doing philosophy.

  • Author : Patrick Lin
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2017-09-01
  • ISBN : 0190652969
  • Pages : 441 pages

Download or read book Robot Ethics 2 0 written by Patrick Lin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The robot population is rising on Earth and other planets. (Mars is inhabited entirely by robots.) As robots slip into more domains of human life--from the operating room to the bedroom--they take on our morally important tasks and decisions, as well as create new risks from psychological to physical. This makes it all the more urgent to study their ethical, legal, and policy impacts. To help the robotics industry and broader society, we need to not only press ahead on a wide range of issues, but also identify new ones emerging as quickly as the field is evolving. For instance, where military robots had received much attention in the past (and are still controversial today), this volume looks toward autonomous cars here as an important case study that cuts across diverse issues, from liability to psychology to trust and more. And because robotics feeds into and is fed by AI, the Internet of Things, and other cognate fields, robot ethics must also reach into those domains, too. Expanding these discussions also means listening to new voices; robot ethics is no longer the concern of a handful of scholars. Experts from different academic disciplines and geographical areas are now playing vital roles in shaping ethical, legal, and policy discussions worldwide. So, for a more complete study, the editors of this volume look beyond the usual suspects for the latest thinking. Many of the views as represented in this cutting-edge volume are provocative--but also what we need to push forward in unfamiliar territory.

Book Robot Ethics

Download or read book Robot Ethics written by Patrick Lin and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prominent experts from science and the humanities explore issues in robot ethics that range from sex to war. Robots today serve in many roles, from entertainer to educator to executioner. As robotics technology advances, ethical concerns become more pressing: Should robots be programmed to follow a code of ethics, if this is even possible? Are there risks in forming emotional bonds with robots? How might society—and ethics—change with robotics? This volume is the first book to bring together prominent scholars and experts from both science and the humanities to explore these and other questions in this emerging field. Starting with an overview of the issues and relevant ethical theories, the topics flow naturally from the possibility of programming robot ethics to the ethical use of military robots in war to legal and policy questions, including liability and privacy concerns. The contributors then turn to human-robot emotional relationships, examining the ethical implications of robots as sexual partners, caregivers, and servants. Finally, they explore the possibility that robots, whether biological-computational hybrids or pure machines, should be given rights or moral consideration. Ethics is often slow to catch up with technological developments. This authoritative and accessible volume fills a gap in both scholarly literature and policy discussion, offering an impressive collection of expert analyses of the most crucial topics in this increasingly important field.

Book Ethics and Robotics

Download or read book Ethics and Robotics written by Rafael Capurro and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ethics and robotics are two academic disciplines, one dealing with the moral norms and values underlying implicitly or explicitly human behavior and the other aiming at the production of artificial agents, mostly as physical devices, with some degree of autonomy based on rules and programmes set up by their creators. Robotics is also one of the research fields where the convergence of nanotechnology, biotechnology, information technology and cognitive science is currently taking place with large societal and legal implications beyond traditional industrial applications. Robots are and will remain -in the foreseeable future- dependent on human ethical scrutiny as well as on the moral and legal responsibility of humans. Human-robot interaction raises serious ethical questions right now that are theoretically less ambitious, but practically more important than the possibility of the creation of moral machines that would be more than machines with an ethical code. The ethical perspective addressed in this volume is therefore the one we humans have when interacting with robots. Topics include the ethical challenges of healthcare and warfare applications of robotics, as well as fundamental questions concerning the moral dimension of human-robot-interaction including epistomological, ontological and psychoanalytic issues. It deals also with the intercultural dialogue between Western and Non-Western as well as between European and US-American ethicists."--P. [4] of cover.

Book Homo Numericus

  • Author : Daniel Cohen
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2024-02-07
  • ISBN : 150956022X
  • Pages : 104 pages

Download or read book Homo Numericus written by Daniel Cohen and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-02-07 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Amazon to Tinder, from Google to Deliveroo, there is no facet of human life which the digital revolution has not streamlined and dematerialised. Its objective was to reduce the cost of physical interactions by forgoing face-to-face interactions, a direct result of the free-market shock of the 1980s, which sought to seamlessly expand the marketplace in every possible dimension. Today, we can be algorithmically entertained, educated, cared for and courted in a way which was impossible in the old industrial society, where institutions structured the social world. Today, these institutions have been replaced by monetised virtual contact. As with the industrial revolution of the past, the digital revolution is creating a new economy and a new sensibility, bringing about a radical revaluation of society and its representations. While obsessed with the search for an efficient management of human relations, the new digital capitalism gives rise to an irrational and impulsive Homo numericus prone to an array of addictive behaviours. Far from producing a new agora, social media produce a radicalization of public debate in which hate-filled speech directed against adversaries becomes the norm. The good news is that these outcomes are not inevitable. Technologies have not taken control of our lives. The digital revolution also offers an alternative path: one that leads to a world in which every word deserves to be listened to, without a transcendent truth hanging over it. Are we able to seize the new opportunities opened up by the digital revolution without succumbing to its dark side?

Book Rights for Intelligent Robots

Download or read book Rights for Intelligent Robots written by Kęstutis Mosakas and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2024-10-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the question of human moral duties toward robots has gained momentum in scholarly research due to great advancements in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. Although the current machines fall short of the level of sophistication and human likeness portrayed in science fiction (e.g., the Westworld series or the movie Blade Runner 2049), they are increasingly assuming roles in our society in various important areas, including manufacturing, healthcare, education, customer service, entertainment, and many others. This book makes a meaningful contribution to the ongoing philosophical discourse surrounding the moral treatment of robots. By providing a rigorous and systematic examination of key moral concepts (e.g., moral rights, moral status, moral considerability, and moral value) within the context of robotics and exploring other closely related issues (e.g., the moral implications of artificial consciousness and the associated epistemic challenges), this book offers fresh insights into the necessary and sufficient conditions for machine moral status and rights.

Book Learning Robot And Business Moral

Download or read book Learning Robot And Business Moral written by John Lok and published by . This book was released on 2023-07-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book divides two parts. The first part indicate why robot product manufacturers need to concern moral or ethic to manufacture any robot products. The second part indicate why scientists need to concern science moral or ethic to do whose scientific researches. In first part, I shall indicate these two questions to concern the difference between (AI) scientist moral and other scientist moral. (AI) research and development raises two questions about moral responsibilities: Should we continue to develop artificial intelligent entities? If we do, what are our moral responsibilities to them? I write this (AI) moral first part aims to let readers to make argument that to judge why robots need have legal, ethic, or moral limitation to concern whether much of robot ethics is concerned with the well-being of human or/and not ethical employment, or moral regard and threaten of robots. Whether robot ethic or moral or legal questions ought need to be considered by law or society or fully moral agent, and whether any robot ethic or moral or legal issues whether are permitted to enter contracts and largely whether are held fully responsible to ( at least some of ) their actions. The most important aim that I expect my readers can make critically logical mind to give yourself opinions to concern whether either which robots will ethical consequence or in this situation, it is not an issue of the morality of the decider, but rather the moral weight of the choice once made. In AI weapon immoral application aspect, Nowadays, artificial intelligence (AI) technology is popular to be applied to different industry aspects, such as medical, construction, transportation, hospital, education etc. Although, (AI) is a human invention new development. IN fact, it seems only beneficial to human's daily life. But, it will also have threats to influence human's safety in possible, if some scientists or self-interest mind people who aim to apply (AI) to earn more profit or apply (AI) tools to be weapon to attack other countries to achieve to dominate all human's ambitious intention. Thus, (AI) will bring negative influences to our society, instead of positive influences if we can not apply this kind of new technological tools immorally. I shall give my opinions to indicate what reasons will cause (AI) artificial intelligent tools to be applied to social military defense weapon by human's intention. In my this books, I hope my readers can know what will cause human's immoral behaviors to bring our societies to bring more dangerous or risks or threats if human applied (AI) technology to achieve whose immoral or ambitious intention. Finally, I hope that human ought not apply (AI) technology to do any behavioral attack to satisfy ourselves interest or dominate global world ambition to avoid (AI) technological war occurrence in the future one day. I shall bring the question: Whether AI weapon application is moral or immoral to AI scientist invention. In my this part, I shall imply some questions are addressed by robots with some moral agency to let my readers to make evaluation of robot its own ethical system and moral judgment. In second part, what is business science morality? Why is business science morality important? Why do business managers or scientists need to consider whose moral behaviors to achieve to do any decisions as well as consider what are negative or bad influence to other stakeholders? I shall suppose different situations to indicate to these scientists, such as physical, earth, plant, medicine, computer etc. My aim is to raise their judicious ability to judge whether who ought or ought not follow morality to do their scientific research in any situations as well as whether who will encounter what of challenges if who don't follow the morality to do their research in the situation . I hope any scientists can learn how to deal their moral behavior to do correct scientific decision.

Book Agency Perception and Moral Values Related to Autonomous Weapons

Download or read book Agency Perception and Moral Values Related to Autonomous Weapons written by Ilse Verdiesen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The deployment of Autonomous Weapons gives rise to ongoing debate in society and at the United Nations, in the context of the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons. Yet little empirical research has been done on this topic. This volume fills that gap by offering an empirical study based on military personnel and civilians working at the Dutch Ministry of Defence. It yields insight into how Autonomous Weapons are perceived by the military and general public; and which moral values are considered important in relation to their deployment. The research approach used is the Value-Sensitive Design (VSD) method that allows for the consideration of human values throughout the design process of technology. The outcome indicates that military personnel and civilians attribute more agency (the capacity to think and plan) to an Autonomous Weapon than to a Human Operated Drone. In addition, it is clear that common ground exists between military and societal groups in their perception of the values of human dignity and anxiety. These two values arise often in the discourse, and addressing them is essential when considering the ethics of the deployment of Autonomous Weapons. The text of this volume is also offered in parallel French and German translation.

Book Children   s Conceptions of the Moral Standing of a Humanoid Robot of the Here and Now

Download or read book Children s Conceptions of the Moral Standing of a Humanoid Robot of the Here and Now written by Solace Shen and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sophisticated humanoid robots have recently moved from the laboratory and research settings to the home environment. Some models are now marketed to families with children, and are designed to engage children in increasingly social and potentially moral interactions. The purpose of this study is to investigate—when children interact with a commercially available humanoid robot and witness a human causing a harm to the robot—whether children conceptualize the robot as being an entity that deserves moral consideration: what is referred to in this study as having moral standing. Participants included 120 children in 2 age groups (8-9 and 14-15). To assess the effects of the robot’s physical embodiment on participants’ conceptions of the robot’s moral standing, 30 participants from each age group (gender balanced) were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 conditions and interacted with either a humanoid robot or an analogous virtual agent. In each condition, the interaction culminated in a confederate hitting the robot/virtual agent with a book. Each participant was then engaged in a semi-structured interview that ascertained their judgments and reasoning regarding the robot/virtual agent and three comparison entities. Results show that the majority of the participants judged the confederate hitting the robot as a violation of moral obligation, and many brought the concept of artificial emotion to bear in their reasoning. Participants were significantly more likely to judge it a violation of moral obligation to hit the robot than the virtual agent. Moreover, the 8- to 9-year-olds were significantly more likely than the 14- to 15-year-olds to judge it a violation of moral obligation to hit either the robot or the virtual agent. Finally, participants’ conceptions of the robot’s moral standing largely showed a unique composition of moral features when compared to those of the comparison entities. Discussion addresses the broader implications of these findings and future directions for research are offered.
