I have just discovered this obituary for Susan Leigh Anderson. Susan (along with her husband Michael) innovated "Machine Ethics" back in the early 2000's and led the way in developing what is now called #aiethics. She was a true innovator. @MachineEthics legacy.com/us/obituaries/leg…

"Computational Ethics": Fascinating @TrendsCognSci article led by my amazing former lab members @EdmondAwad @sydneymlevine and a superstar list of co-authors. This is a field-building paper. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…!

Our new paper, “Computational Ethics”, is out now in @TrendsCognSci!  @EdmondAwad and I spearheaded this collaboration of 20 authors across 8+ disciplines, arguing that the study of machine ethics and human ethics should be in dynamic exchange. authors.elsevier.com/sd/arti… 1/

"It is a brave new world unlikely to be successfully negotiated without brave new approaches." This bold statement appeared in our February 2019 issue regarding artificial intelligence (AI) and its subsequent algorithms: spr.ly/6016G46Ng #HealthBias
I am seeing a lot of stuff like this coming out of the Tweet-stream from #AIES2020 Important to recall that traction on this exact problem was already being developed and prototyped by @MachineEthics and @WendellWallach/@wileyprof This is why a robust lit review is not optional
Computer scientist at AIES: Develops elaborate mathematical ethics. Proves bounds on algorithm that ignores lived experience. Social scientist at AIES: Condenses field work into rich, culturally specific framework. Proposes principles that cannot be implemented. 🤔 #AIES2020

In his recent piece for "3 Quarks Daily," @michaelklenk asks readers to imagine an "artificial moral advisor." We do not even need to imagine. Micheal Anderson, Susan Anderson and Chris Armen @MachineEthics have already constructed working prototypes. semanticscholar.org/paper/Me…

As #AI becomes more integrated into our health systems, what are the best ways to further develop and implement these advances for the benefit of patients?@machineethics and Susan Leigh Anderson discuss in one of our February #ethics cases. spr.ly/6013EeSdT
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems @IntelligentSystems @playful_robot and MachineEthics.com @MachineEthics argue that ethically significant behavior of autonomous systems should be guided by explicit ethical principles. bit.ly/2T7EkBJ

There is a debate in #AIethics between those who argue that the field should be limited to the ethics of the design and use of AI (@j2bryson @cccalum @johnchavens et al) and "ethical AI" (@MachineEthics @winfield @WendellWallach et al.) For the latter: proceedingsoftheieee.ieee.or…

Replying to @AiProcuremntLab
"Little serious research into the topic?" It sounds like someone at @scibus is simply not doing their homework.

How do you know when #AI is starting to affect #healthcare? When the @AmerMedicalAssn publishes a whole issue, open-access on ethics, reimagining #meded, policy, validation, implementation, and more journalofethics.ama-assn.org… via @ivanoransky

Artificial intelligence technology has tremendous capability to threaten patient preference, safety, and privacy. Our new issue explores how the medical community can engage with the #ethical challenges presented by AI spr.ly/6018EuJop
