Corporantia: Is moral consciousness above individual brains/robots?
Paladyn, Journal of Behavioral Robotics 9:1-5 (2018)
Abstract
This article calls out the common assumption that moral consciousness occurs at the level of individual brains and robots. It explores the alternative, evidence against the assumption, and provides a means to further test the assumption. It also discusses the consequences of making or abandoning this assumption, especially the consequences for the further evolution of robots.Author's Profile
