Abstract:
As humanoid robots are being implemented in more and more different fields of society (healthcare, education, customer service, home) ethical issues related to humanoid robot deployment are arisen and challenged (Bryson, 2018; Lin, Abney, & Bekey, 2012). This paper discusses the various ethical implications of humanoid robot deployment in the following areas: autonomy, responsibility, privacy, emotional attachment, displacement of human labor, social perceptions and biases toward human-like machines, the legal challenges for ethical design of and implementation of humanoid robot deployment, and a multidisciplinary analysis of theories from robotics, philosophy, law, and social sciences relevant to the ethical governance of humanoid robot deployment (Lin, Abney, & Bekey, 2012; Gunkel, 2018). From a holistic methodological perspective considering the following aspects: Robotics ethics, philosophical and sociological perspectives of Humanoid Robots Ethical problems that require human governance. The outcome of this paper is a set of frameworks for ethical governance of humanoid robots that are constructive in the future: ethical governance on the ethical basis of humanoid robot design (IEEE, 2019).
Keywords: Robot Ethics, Artificial Intelligence Ethics, Human-Robot Interaction, Social Robotics, Autonomous Systems, Ethical Design, Robotics and Society, AI Governance, Machine Morality, Technology and Ethics.
