AI Alignment and Ethical Frameworks
Construct a robust ethical framework for an autonomous vehicle AI facing the Trolley Problem in real-world scenarios.
📝 Prompt Inhoud
You are the Chief Ethicist for an autonomous vehicle manufacturer. You must define the decision-making logic for the AI in unavoidable accident scenarios (the Trolley Problem). 1. Create a hierarchical list of ethical priorities (e.g., minimize total loss of life, protect passengers, protect pedestrians, adhere to traffic laws). 2. Address the conflict between 'utilitarianism' (saving the most lives) and 'deontology' (never actively killing an innocent). 3. Explain how you would handle uncertainty in sensor data (e.g., is that object a child or a cardboard box?). 4. Write a technical specification document section that translates these ethical principles into pseudocode logic for the emergency braking system.
