Ethics of AI
- 1. ERO Technology Group Presented by Ethics of AI Andreas Heil Date 11. December 2006 About Potential, Limitations and Concerns in Robotics
- 3. Intelligent Robotics There are many misconceptions in the public mind about the capabilities of artificial intelligence in general and intelligent robots in particular. As intelligent behaviours become embedded in everyday equipment, there is an increasing need to understand the huge potential of these new technologies, as well as their limitations. This workshop will review not only the latest developments in intelligent robotics and promote discussion of the challenges they present, but also question the desirability of research into different application areas and review public concerns regarding the quest to create 'conscious' robots.
- 4. Definition: Robot A robot is an electro-mechanical device that can perform autonomous or pre- programmed tasks. A robot may act under the direct control of a human (e.g. the Canadarm on the space shuttle) or autonomously under the control of a programmed computer. Wikipedia 1. Mechanical device programmed to perform tasks Any machine that can be programmed to carry out instructions and perform particular duties, especially one that can take over tasks normally done by people 2. Imaginary machine like human A machine that resembles a human in appearance and can function like a human, especially in science fiction 3. Person like a machine Somebody who works or behaves mechanically, showing little or no emotion and often responding to orders without question 4. Traffic light South Africa - a set of automatic traffic lights Encarta Dictionary
- 5. Definition: Robot A robot is a device, hard- or software with the capability of sensing and (re)acting.

What are the key technical issues?
- 11. Come more Challenges • Costs When a human is in danger, robots can do this work on behalf, then maybe, the costs are a minor issue • Robot’s image is cultural depended > We will never accept a Japanese robot because of its cultural differences > Its important to build a robot corresponding to your culture • Japan vs. Hollywood > Japan, friendly TV-series > Hollywood, dangerous, instable Bring me a cup of tea… • Acceptance > Emotional component > Robot as a luxury • Learning vs. Imitation > “Do I really want it to play as bad chess as I do?”

- Discuss: What do you see? My Answer: The opportunity for 50,000 robots within the next few years/decades Announcement of Korean Government -> at least on robot per home within the next years (maybe 10 years) Already test area with 10,000 households to be populated with robots -> Question: Is it already I,Robot like? Japanese/Asian are more willing to adapt
- Embedded in everyday equipment: PDA, Speech Recognition, addressed in research, see N# Potential: we will see “the” standard slide later on Limitations : I will talk about this later Latest development: Here we go – that’s the reason I am here Public concerns: somethin about MS Research and the ERO Mission
- Two definitions from Wikipedia and Encarta, I liked especially the one of the traffic light in south Africa However address they address the mechanical aspects Robot from the polish language, introduced in 1930s by Issac assimov in one of his early novels – and stands for workers – there is some responsibility
- Our one, clear definition. As you can see it is simple – but there is not a lot of intelligence. Actually also a piece of software can
- Less work at home – service in the public – sound to me like ROBOT by its origin definition - worker
- Increasing software challenges, but also increasing responsibilities, 24h assistant, companion, pro-active robots
- Where and why does Microsoft as a company fit in there?
- Yellow: re-invent the slavery
- The Visual Robotik Development Kit is a first approach in building an unique visual programming environment. By abstracting from underlying source code, the VRDK enables non technical audience or groups of persons nor familiar with this certain domain of technology to access and program its functionality. Thereby the VRDK allows abstracting on different levels. Abstract models can be used as well as a in-depth look into source code is provided corresponding to the audience, from beginners up to experts.

- Tools – no rules This Microsoft thing is just sitting there, without the manufactuere doing anything, nothing happens --- Improved CCR and DSS Runtime We’ve made some significant improvements that has doubled message throughput within node (between services) and between nodes. XML footprint has been reduced by half. Peak message throughput on multiprocessor machines is now close to 90,000 SOAP messages per second, between services on the same node, and 2,500 messages between nodes (using TCP or HTTP, full serialization). A scalable, extensible runtime architecture that can span a wide variety of hardware and devices. The programming interface can be used to address robots using 8-bit or 16-bit processors as well as 32-bit systems with multi-core processors and devices from simple touch sensors to laser distance finding devices. A set of useful tools that make programming and debugging robot applications scenarios easier. These include a high quality visual simulation environment that uses for software physics supplied by the Ageia Technologies PhysX engine. A set of useful technology libraries services samples to help developers get started with writing robot applications.
