#6: Kosher Autonomous Cars: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence Through Jewish Eyes
Dr. Nachshon (Sean) Goltz and Dr. John Zeleznikow join me to discuss the ethics of artificial intelligence:
Why it is important to understand how AI makes life and death decisions (such as autonomous cars navigating a busy street for example, or supply chain AI allocating scarce medicines to patients)
What happens when the AI makes a life and death decision different than the one we we would make personally?
We discuss the Trolley Car problem, which postulates that a trolley car is travelling uncontrollably and will kill one of two groups of people. How should the trolley (i.e. autonomous car, supply chain AI agent) decide which group lives and which dies? Would you make a different choice?
How does the Jewish tradition approach this question? How does the Holocaust inform how autonomous cars might make this decision?
Dr. Nachshon (Sean Goltz) is a Senior Lecturer in the School of Business and Law at Edith Cowan University in Perth, Australia .
