The field of robotics is advancing at a rapid pace. Self-driving cars may be sharing the road with human drivers within the next five years, and service robots may soon be looking after the elderly and disabled. Furthermore, robot soldiers could be fighting alongside US military personnel in the not-too-distant future. But how can roboticists ensure that their creations – once unleashed – will behave ethically? British journalist Simon Parkin describes three different ways in which designers try to instill morals in their robots. getAbstract believes that both technology professionals and the general reader will find this piece intriguing.
