TED Salon: Samsung

• September 2018

Wir sind weit davon entfernt, empfindungsfähige Roboter zu entwickeln. Jedoch haben wir schon Gefühle für sie, sagt Roboterethikerin Kate Darling, und ein solcher Instinkt kann Konsequenzen haben. Lernen Sie mehr darüber, wie wir biologisch darauf programmiert sind, Absicht und Leben auf Maschinen zu projizieren -- und wie es uns helfen könnte uns selbst besser zu verstehen.

How should the law think about robots? This collection of work from a diverse group of legal scholars provides a groundbreaking examination of how robotic technology interacts with our current law and policy, and what may need to change. The challenges include how we assign responsibility for harm, recognizing the social meaning of robots, figuring out whether and how to automate law enforcement, and the laws of using robots in war.

Robot and Frank

A funny and both heartwarming and heartbreaking story that touches on many of the issues we’re likely to see in a near-term future of using household robots and robots to care for the elderly. Against Frank's wishes, his son buys him a walking, talking humanoid robot programmed to improve his physical and mental health. This movie didn’t make a huge splash despite winning awards and featuring an all-star cast (Frank Langella, Susan Sarandon, James Marsden, Liv Tyler, etc.), but it is definitely worth a watch, especially if you're interested in robot ethics.
