We can't turn a blind eye to the ethical challenges brought on by the growing presence of social robots in our lives. But there's hope!
Join us as we explore groundbreaking experiments that integrate the powerful concept of inner speech from psychology into social robots, giving them a sense of ethical consciousness. By giving users access to the machine's inner dialogue, we can work alongside these robots to make more informed ethical decisions.
We'll also discuss how this concept of inner speech plays a role in skilled moral reasoning, or what philosophers call "phronesis," and its potential impact on the future of robotics in the context of elder care.
