Abstract

• We are at a crossroads between Artificial Intelligence, Machine Ethics, and their Social Impacts.

• I co-authored in 2016 “Programming Machine Ethics,” a book of technical incursions into this terra incognita.

• It addresses two moral realms ‒ the cognitive and the populational ‒ using techniques from Logic Programming and from Evolutionary Game Theory.

• This talk delves into machine ethics and the non-technical issues arising from it. They are covered in a 2020 book I co-authored:

Machine Ethics (English)    &    Máquinas Éticas (Portuguese)
