  1. Robotic Ethics Shahid Iqbal Tarar

  2. Robotics and Ethics • Is new science or branch or a field of application of Engineering? • Actually Discipline born from Computer Science, AI, Mechanics, Physics/Maths, Electronics, Automation and control and cybernetics • Specificity of Robotics • Humanity at threshold of replicating an intellegent and autonomous entity • Complex concepts like (learning, conciousness, decision making , freedom, emtions etc. ) may not have same semantic meaning in humans, animals and machines

  3. Robotics and Ethics • It draws on many other disciplnes like logic, neuroscience, biology, philosophy, natural history and arts. • Robotics defecto unifies two cultures, science and humanities • The primary assumption for Robotic ethics is the unity of these cultures

  4. Robotics • Introduction • Three Laws of Robotics introduced by Isaac Asimov in 1942 • A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. • A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. • A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. • Later, Asimov added the Zeroth Law: • "A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm"; the rest of the laws are modified sequentially to acknowledge this.

  5. Robotics (layman opinion) Robots are just machines Robots have ethical dimensions Robots as moral agents Robots, evolution of a new specie

  6. Robotic ethics taxonomy • Humanoid • Artificial minds • Artificial body • Benefits • Problems • Recommendations • Safety • Security • Tracebility • Indentifiability • Privacy

  7. Advanced production systems • Industrial Robotics • Benefits • Problems • Recommendations • Adaptive robot servants and intellgent homes • Indoor Service Robots • Ubiquitous Robotics • Network Robotics (Internet Robotics, robot Ecology) • Benefits • Problems • Recommendations

  8. Out door Robotics • Land • Sea • Air • Space • Health care and life quality • Surgical robots • Bio Robotics • Assistive technology • Robotics in Computational technology • Military Robotics • Intellegent weapons • Robot Soldiers • Superhumans • Edutainment • Educational Robot Kits • Robot Toys • Entertainment

  9. Ethics in Robotics • Atleast three things we might mean • The ethical systems built into robots, • The ethics of people who design and use robots • The ethics of how people treat robots
