This volume is an exploration of the ethical and philosophical challenges in developing artificial intelligence systems capable of moral reasoning and behaviour.


Artificial Morality: An Exploration of Moral Machines is an exploration of the ethical and philosophical challenges in developing artificial intelligence systems capable of moral reasoning and behaviour. Bridging centuries of philosophical debate with analyses of large language models, this book examines how shifting conceptions of human identity and the evolution of technology shape our understanding of morality. It critiques anthropocentric views of ethical agency while proposing innovative frameworks for aligning AI with diverse human values. Through a deep dive into the technical architectures of current AI systems, discussions on machine consciousness, and the risks posed by autonomous systems, Andrei Nutas charts a path for embedding principles like fairness, privacy, and accountability into future intelligent machines. This study concludes by advocating for the nurturing of machine wisdom, guided by universal principles that transcend rigid exceptionalism, ultimately aiming to foster a more compassionate and equitable future for all sentient beings.
