Engineering Out Loud

Ethics in AI presentation, S13E2


Listen Later

Imagine the camera of a self-driving car switches to a power-saving mode and takes low-resolution images. As a result, the car hits a pedestrian. A mundane decision to save battery thus becomes a decision to value battery life over human life. While we have long relied on software and automation, the prospect of a fully automated decision process charges many algorithmic decisions with a variety of ethical problems.  

The talk presented in this podcast, “Where do Ethics Belong in Artificial Intelligence?”, explores how philosophers and engineers think about ethics in artificial Intelligence. It was presented at Oregon State University by Houssam Abbas, assistant professor of electrical engineering and Alicia Patterson, assistant professor of philosophy, as part of an AI seminar series
