Moral programming: ethics at the front door

Moral programming: ethics at the front door

Human ethics and machine-ethics are two different but related things. I will adress the issue of moral programming and how it relates to ancient moral philosophy. Deontic logic is a tool that can be used to program the more absolutist moral approaches, which is pretty much the ethics people do not do. Therefore we need to rethink our Ethical Desicion Making Models (EDMs) when we try to answer the following questions:
1) who decides on moral programming of smart technology
2) how do we want it to be programmed when it interacts with us
