Is morality the last frontier for machines?

Publication date: Available online 11 January 2019Source: New Ideas in PsychologyAuthor(s): Bipin IndurkhyaAbstractThis paper examines some ethical and cognitive aspects of machines making moral decisions in difficult situations. We compare the situations when humans have to make tough moral choices with those in which machines make such decisions. We argue that in situations where machines make tough moral choices, it is important to produce justification for those decisions that are psychologically compelling and acceptable by people.
