TED: >Should your driverless car kill you if it means saving five pedestrians? In this primer on the social dilemmas of driverless cars, Iyad Rahwan explores how the technology will challenge our morality and explains his work collecting data from real people on the ethical trade-offs we’re willing (and not willing) to make.

This is a fascinating dilemma and shows that our technology answers are moving much faster than our moral and ethical ones. As advancements in artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and automation accelerate, society struggles to establish ethical frameworks that keep pace. Questions about privacy, fairness, and responsibility arise as technology integrates deeper into our daily lives. Who should be held accountable for AI-driven decisions? How do we balance innovation with ethical considerations? The rapid development of tools like facial recognition and genetic engineering challenges traditional moral perspectives. Even in areas like self-driving cars, the issue of responsibility becomes critical—especially when auto accidents occur due to AI-driven decision-making. Without proactive discussions and regulations, we risk unforeseen consequences that could reshape our world in unpredictable ways. Thanks to my friend Mike Rose for the link.
