Computational Ethicist
-
There seems to exist an attitude that computational ethics is
impossible, but even if it is in the general case, it is extremely
important to nevertheless develop the theory of computational
ethics, of, for and by computational systems.
I think that the
field is woefully underdeveloped, however, there is more promising
recent work.
A regression library of Situations and their moral
responses, such as I believe is being built by MIT, is a good
starting point.
As is work on deontic logic, and formal
verification of ethical decisions.
Collecting research into this
area.
Another area of study is ai safety, which is receiving
increasing scrutiny lately.
