What the #ethics of #AI enhancement?

@yuxinliu.bsky.social et al. found #AI moral #enhancement (AMA) was more acceptable than other enhancement methods, but undermines #moralResponsibility.

Yuxin Liu presenting "An Alternative Path to Moral Bioenhancement?" Methods: Example Scenario "In the near future, significant achievements in science have opened up the possibility of moral enhancement — the ability to improve people's moral characteristics through a range of medical or non-medical technologies. Evidence has shown that these technologies are safe for humans. People who want to morally improve themselves can voluntarily choose to make use of these moral enhancement technologies. One of these technologies is an artificial moral advisor (AMA), which can effectively enhance one's moral capacity through an external Al device that produces moral advice based on signals from information in one's surrounding physical environment. For example, it can help a person focus on their own emotions in the moment and their underlying causes, so that they are more likely to be patient. Imagine a scenario where Sam has been working on an important report with a co-worker who fails to deliver their part after a whole week. Before enhancement, Sam would have lashed out. After using this technology, Sam is easily able to consider various possible external reasons for the co-worker's delay." Statistical relationships between the moral enhancement methods and the two main outcomes, the predictors, as well as the covariates. Linear relationships between moral acceptability and various judgments, with a separate line for each moral enhancement method.

Can machines be taught to understand right from wrong? Should we build AI that can navigate complex ethical dilemmas, or is morality an inherently human trait that technology can never truly grasp?

Yuxin Liu explores these questions in the latest CTMF blog post, ‘Can AI be moral?’ ▶️ edin.ac/4icaeZ9
There is a green to blue gradient background, with a headshot photo of Yuxin. Text reads: 'Can AI be moral? The quest for moral machines and what it means for human morality, Yuxin Liu, PhD Fellow. Centre for Technomoral Futures Blog.'
