Collaborative Research with Ethical, Legal and Social Implications

随着自动驾驶汽车等自动驾驶系统在社会中的使用越来越多，道德问题变得至关重要。 该提案旨在将人工智能和机器人技术的研究人员与伦理和法律研究人员聚集在一起，讨论伦理，法律的和社会影响（ELSI）研究与技术开发和设计研究之间的关系。 研讨会的重点将是使用自治系统的道德和合法性，以及如何将自治系统与一系列道德行为相结合。 研讨会将讨论的问题，以及如何NSF可以促进技术人员和伦理学家在ELSI竞技场的跨学科工作。 将邀请大约30名人工智能、机器人、伦理和法律领域的研究人员，以及来自汽车行业的监管机构和工业界人士。 为期一天的形式，这将是在斯坦福大学举行，将包括闪电会谈的参与者，几个分组会议，并致力于执行摘要和电子参考指南？最佳实践？对于这样的合作研究。

With the increasing use of autonomous systems in society, such as self-driving vehicles, issues of ethics becomes paramount. The proposal seeks to bring researchers in AI and Robotics together with researchers in ethics and the law to discuss the relationships between research in ethical, legal and social implications (ELSI) and research in technological development and design. The focus of the workshop will be both on the ethics and legality of using autonomous systems and on how to imbue autonomous systems with a set of ethical behaviors. The workshop will discuss the issues and how NSF can promote interdisciplinary work between technologists and ethicists in the ELSI arena. Approximately 30 researchers in AI, robotics, ethics and the law, together with regulators and industrial people from the automotive industry will be invited. The one-day format, which will be held at Stanford University, will include lightning talks by participants, several breakout sessions, and work towards an executive summary and electronic reference guide on ?best practices? for such collaborative research.
