Should future A.I. have civil rights?
Published on Dec 28, 2015
Quote:
Artificial Intelligence, androids, A.I. -- should the man-made non-organic beings in our not-too distant future get the same civil rights a human should have? Should synthetic people be treated the same? Is that future to be avoided, like Bill Gates and Elon Musk have argued?

The ethical dilemma of self-driving cars - Patrick Lin
Published on Dec 8, 2015
Quote:
Self-driving cars are already cruising the streets today. And while these cars will ultimately be safer and cleaner than their manual counterparts, they can’t completely avoid accidents altogether. How should the car be programmed if it encounters an unavoidable accident? Patrick Lin navigates the murky ethics of self-driving cars.

The rise of social robotics
Published on Feb 19, 2016
Quote:
Humans are social animals: starting as babies, we learn through a process of social referencing, observing others and developing a theory of mind, empathy and acculturation. Vanessa Evers, Professor of Human Media Interaction at the University of Twente, discusses how robots can also learn to understand and fit in with our social rules.

Making an ethical machine
Published on Feb 19, 2016
Quote:
Many people assume that robots would have to be sentient before they could act ethically. Not so, explains Alan Winfield, Director of the Science Communication Unit at the University of the West of England. If a robot can model and predict the consequences of its own and others’ actions, it can be programmed to act in ethical ways.

Verifying and validating machine intelligence
Published on Feb 19, 2016
Quote:
If an animal jumps out in front of an autonomous car, how should the car approach the trade-off between saving the animal and endangering the driver? Andrew Moore, Dean of the School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, describes how such policy questions are now becoming urgent – as is the task of verifying solutions.
