ABSTRACT:
How would you feel about losing your job to a machine? How
about a tsunami alert system that fails? Would you react differently to acts
of discrimination performed by a machine or a human? How about public
surveillance? Are there conditions in which we judge machines unfairly?
Is our judgment of machines affected by the moral dimensions of a scenario?
Is our judgment of machines correlated with demographic factors, such as
education or gender? In his book “How Humans Judge Machines,” Hidalgo
and colleagues use hard science to take on these pressing technological
questions. Through original research, they bring us one step closer to understanding the ethical
consequences of artificial intelligence.
