RoboTIPS: Developing Responsible Robots for the Digital Economy

该研究金将汇集来自各行各业的各种人士，包括学术界、工业界、民间社会、决策者和公众，以创造开发和管理技术创新的新方法。在增加技术革新的经济需要与负责任地发展这些革新的方式之间往往存在着紧张关系，负责任地发展这些革新的方式是社会可接受和可取的方式。我们将制定一种方法，不仅要预测技术创新对社会的积极影响，还要预测技术创新对社会的潜在负面影响。我们将利用这一点以及对人们生活权利和义务的理解，为设计师提供创造性的资源和方法，以开发负责任和负责任的新技术。负责任的创新是数字经济技术的核心，旨在促进信任、身份、隐私和安全。虽然它已经在其他科学领域得到了借鉴，但我们还没有一个完整的例子来说明负责任的创新如何成功地应用于DE部门。该研究金将考虑一个激励性的例子，以发展负责任的创新行动。我们将研究一个特定的技术领域，并开发一个敏捷的流程，该流程将在快速变化的背景下考虑到各种各样的人的观点，以便对创新的轨迹产生一定的影响。我们将集中在社交机器人领域，这些机器人与人互动，并自行决定做什么雅阁。因为他们为了执行行动而做出自己的决定，所以当事情似乎出错时，我们需要能够恢复他们所做的事情以及他们为什么这样做。我们将开发一个道德黑盒（EBB），通过它，社交机器人将能够以简单易懂的方式解释其行为。EBB的发展将成为负责任创新的典范。我们将在特定的事故调查中测试这一点，作为一个社会过程，我们将在3个不同的研究领域中进行。在奖学金的最后阶段，我们将通过各种方式展示技术发展和调查的成果，包括通过网络和最后的公开展示活动。这将是各种各样的人，包括公众，政策制定者和开发商。

This fellowship will bring together a variety of people from different walks of life, including academics, industry, civil societies, policy makers and members of the public, in order to create new ways of developing and managing technological innovations. There is often a tension between the economic needs for increasing technological innovation and the ways in which these innovations may be developed responsibly - that is in a manner that is societally acceptable and desirable. We will develop an approach that aims to anticipate not only the positive outcomes but also the potentially negative consequences of technological innovations for society. We will draw on this and an understanding of people's lived rights and obligations to provide creative resources and methods for designers to develop responsible and accountable new technologies. Responsible Innovation lies at the heart of technologies in the Digital economy that aim to promote trust, identity, privacy and security. Although it has been drawn on in other scientific domains, as yet we have no complete example of how responsible innovation can be successfully applied in the DE sector. The fellowship will consider a motivating example to develop responsible innovation in action. We will look into one particular domain of technology and develop an agile process which will take account of the views of a wide range of people in a fast-changing context, in order to have some influence over the trajectory of an innovation. We will focus on the domain of social robots, those which interact with people and make decisions about what to do on their own accord. Because they make their own decisions in order to perform actions, we need to be able to recover what they did and why they did it, when things seem to go wrong. We will develop an ethical black box (EBB) through which the social robot will be able to explain its behaviour in simple and understandable ways. The development of the EBB will be an example of responsible innovation. We will test this out in particular accident investigations as a social process and we will do this in 3 different study domains. In the final stages of the fellowship, we will show the outcomes of the technological development and the investigations through a variety of means, including through the web and a final public showcase event. This will be to a variety of people including the general public, policy makers, and developers.
