Document Details : Title: Ethical Dilemmas and Solution Strategies in Creating Intelligent Moral Machines Author(s): XU, Zichun Journal: Ethical Perspectives Volume: 28 Issue: 4 Date: 2021 Pages: 473-497 DOI: 10.2143/EP.28.4.3290397 Abstract : With the wide application of artificial intelligence, how to make ethical reasoning and moral decision-making by intelligent machines with high autonomy in the future has become one of the most urgent problems to be solved in the study of machine ethics. In order to solve the ethical dilemma of artificial intelligence, machine ethics put forward the theoretical presupposition of moral computation. However, there are methodological challenges in the theoretical presupposition of moral computing in moral theory, background representation, moral phenomenon and subjective initiative. In addition, according to advocates, moral computation as a better moral explanation provides an epistemological basis for the ethical turn. However, this ‘revolution of moral thinking’ itself has many limitations. Therefore, to realize the integrated development of moral philosophy and intelligent machines, we can consider the status of machine ethics to crack the ethical dilemma of methodology and epistemology, and bring the behaviour of intelligent machines more in line with ethics and morality in the human sense. |
