Moral judgments in online discourse are not biased by gender.

Scientific reports
The interaction between social norms and gender roles prescribes gender-specific behaviors that influence moral judgments. While previous work has demonstrated the existence of gender-bias in judgments, these studies are mainly based on controlled ex...

Influence of AI behavior on human moral decisions, agency, and responsibility.

Scientific reports
There is a growing interest in understanding the effects of human-machine interaction on moral decision-making (Moral-DM) and sense of agency (SoA). Here, we investigated whether the "moral behavior" of an AI may affect both moral-DM and SoA in a mil...

Artefacts of Change: The Disruptive Nature of Humanoid Robots Beyond Classificatory Concerns.

Science and engineering ethics
One characteristic of socially disruptive technologies is that they have the potential to cause uncertainty about the application conditions of a concept i.e., they are conceptually disruptive. Humanoid robots have done just this, as evidenced by dis...

AI Ethics beyond Principles: Strengthening the Life-world Perspective.

Science and engineering ethics
The search for ethical guidance in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, especially in healthcare and decision support, remains a crucial effort. So far, principles usually serve as the main reference points to achieve ethically co...

The impact of action descriptions on attribution of moral responsibility towards robots.

Scientific reports
In the era of renewed fascination with AI and robotics, one needs to address questions related to their societal impact, particularly in terms of moral responsibility and intentionality. In seven vignette-based experiments we investigated whether the...

AI language model rivals expert ethicist in perceived moral expertise.

Scientific reports
People view AI as possessing expertise across various fields, but the perceived quality of AI-generated moral expertise remains uncertain. Recent work suggests that large language models (LLMs) perform well on tasks designed to assess moral alignment...

AI, doping and ethics: On why increasing the effectiveness of detecting doping fraud in sport may be morally wrong.

Journal of medical ethics
In this article, our aim is to show why increasing the effectiveness of detecting doping fraud in sport by the use of artificial intelligence (AI) may be morally wrong. The first argument in favour of this conclusion is that using AI to make a non-id...

AI contextual information shapes moral and aesthetic judgments of AI-generated visual art.

Cognition
Throughout history, art creation has been regarded as a uniquely human means to express original ideas, emotions, and experiences. However, as Generative Artificial Intelligence reshapes visual, aesthetic, legal, and economic culture, critical questi...

It's the AI's fault, not mine: Mind perception increases blame attribution to AI.

PloS one
Can artificial intelligences (AIs) be held accountable for moral transgressions? Current research examines how attributing human mind to AI influences the blame assignment to both the AI and the humans involved in real-world moral transgressions. We ...

People expect artificial moral advisors to be more utilitarian and distrust utilitarian moral advisors.

Cognition
As machines powered by artificial intelligence increase in their technological capacities, there is a growing interest in the theoretical and practical idea of artificial moral advisors (AMAs): systems powered by artificial intelligence that are expl...
