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...

Moral Association Graph: A Cognitive Model for Automated Moral Inference.

Topics in cognitive science
Automated moral inference is an emerging topic of critical importance in artificial intelligence. The contemporary approach typically relies on language models to infer moral relevance or moral properties of a concept. This approach demands complex p...

Credit and blame for AI-generated content: Effects of personalization in four countries.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) raises ethical questions concerning moral and legal responsibility-specifically, the attributions of credit and blame for AI-generated content. For example, if a human invests minimal skill or effort to produce...

Moral enhancement and cheapened achievement: Psychedelics, virtual reality and AI.

Bioethics
A prominent critique of cognitive or athletic enhancement claims that certain performance-improving drugs or technologies may 'cheapen' resulting achievements. Considerably less attention has been paid to the impact of enhancement on the value of mor...

Developmental changes in the perceived moral standing of robots.

Cognition
Emerging evidence suggests that children may think of robots-and artificial intelligence, more generally-as having moral standing. In this paper, we trace the developmental trajectory of this belief. Over three developmental studies (combined N = 415...

People's judgments of humans and robots in a classic moral dilemma.

Cognition
How do ordinary people evaluate robots that make morally significant decisions? Previous work has found both equal and different evaluations, and different ones in either direction. In 13 studies (N = 7670), we asked people to evaluate humans and rob...

Should Doctor Robot possess moral empathy?

Bioethics
Critics of clinical artificial intelligence (AI) suggest that the technology is ethically harmful because it may lead to the dehumanization of the doctor-patient relationship (DPR) by eliminating moral empathy, which is viewed as a distinctively huma...

Generative AI and the future of equality norms.

Cognition
This article will consider the disruptive impact of generative AI on moral beliefs and practices associated with equality, particularly equality of opportunity. It will first outline a framework for understanding the mechanisms through which generati...

Perceptions of artificial intelligence system's aptitude to judge morality and competence amidst the rise of Chatbots.

Cognitive research: principles and implications
This paper examines how humans judge the capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) to evaluate human attributes, specifically focusing on two key dimensions of human social evaluation: morality and competence. Furthermore, it investigates the impa...
