April Newsletter: Are Driverless Cars Drones of a Different Kind?

Can humans talk intelligently about driverless cars without a robot on the panel?

Find out when A2Ethics and the Michigan Ethics Bowl Team host a public discussion.
A few high and low road questions:

  • Given global climate change, should we be favoring technologies that could make driving both massively easier and cheaper? 

  • Who ought to own driverless car data? What are the potential privacy issues?

  • Who should be held morally responsible for potential accidents?

  • What are the ethical issues presented by a driverless car company promoting a Super Bowl ad for "the most ethical algorithms?"

Power up your ethical algorithms and bring your autonomous questions:
