The more able autonomous machines are, and the more they share the same environment as us, the more they need to be enabled to have moral abilities: moral judgment, moral reasoning and moral decision-making. In the last 25 years, the field of machine ethics has been concerned with developing these machine abilities. Machine ethics requires knowledge from moral philosophy, moral psychology, artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, computer science and autonomous systems. What kind of a moral agent should machines be and whose idea of morality should they implement? This talk presents a broad, multi-disciplinary, description of advancements, challenges and open questions in machine ethics.Speaker Biography:Marija Slavkovik is a full Professor with the Faculty for Social Sciences of the University of Bergen.
