Course Description

AI is increasingly part of our day-to-day lives. For us to navigate this radically changing landscape, we must seriously consider the ethics of AI both as we use it currently and how it might be used in the future. In addition, innovations in robotics, both AI-enabled autonomous robots and other robotic applications, are increasingly part of our day-to-day lives. This course will take a multifaceted approach, drawing from a variety of disciplinary perspectives on AI and robotics. Students will draw on major ethical theories and traditions to assess the advances in artificial intelligence and how to address those advances and their impacts
