Can security automata (robots and AIs) make moral decisions to
apply force on humans correctly? If they can make such decisions,
ought they be used to do so? Will security automata increase or
decrease aggregate risk to humans? What regulation is appropriate?
Addressing these important issues this book examines the political
and technical challenges of the robotic use of force. The book
presents accessible practical examples of the 'machine ethics'
technology likely to be installed in military and police robots and
also in civilian robots with everyday security functions such as
childcare. By examining how machines can pass 'reasonable person'
tests to demonstrate measurable levels of moral competence and
display the ability to determine the 'spirit' as well as the
'letter of the law', the author builds upon existing research to
define conditions under which robotic force can and ought to be
used to enhance human security. The scope of the book is thus far
broader than 'shoot to kill' decisions by autonomous weapons, and
should attract readers from the fields of ethics, politics, and
legal, military and international affairs. Researchers in
artificial intelligence and robotics will also find it useful.
