What can we actually expect from possible intelligent machines, and what should we anticipate? Can we agree on basic rules for designing robots, and could they become smart enough to override them? How would desirable robots and robotics look like? What is strong AI and panpsychism, and what does it have to do with each other? What are the challenges and possibilities of brain-computer interfaces?The Human Brain Project (HBP) has steadily moved forward over the past few years.The HBP has:- Launched the high-performance computing platform that allows easy access to high performance computing for the scientific community;- Made neuromorphic computing experiments available without complex hardware experience;- Enabled researchers to use models of the brain in virtual robotics experiments.All are technological advances with great promises for the future.On the 9th of October 2015, The HBP had invited prominent external experts to explore ethical, social and technical issues related to these recent technological and scientific advances. We invite you to explore the conversations that ensued below:The online debate was organised by the Danish Board of Technology Foundation in collaboration with the HBP Foresight Lab at King’s College, London. Both partners of the HBP in the “Ethics and Society” subproject of the Human Brain Project (HBP). |
