Technologies of the Collective. Ethics and Responsibility in Robotic Systems Engineering with Safety and Security
Beschreibung:

Robotic and AI systems increasingly take part in many practices within everyday life. Technological development and innovation transform fields like industrial robotics, up to the exploration of space. However, new sets of possibilities come with new forms of responsibilities.

Engineering itself is a process that is (per)formed by many; individuals, teams, systems, norms, cultures and legislations, only to name a few. This PhD project engages with the ethical challenges that arise within safe and secure robotic systems engineering in industrial robotics. It investigates the subjectively felt responsibility and explores the perception, governance and distribution of ethics and responsibility.

A mixed methods approach within the research design of Grounded Theory and Actor-Network Theory enables to identify and follow how responsibilities are organized and shared. This research (PhD project) aims to discuss which new ethical questions emerge and what competencies and strategies of safe and secure robotics and AI  engineering are present, and required.
