About this ebook
What Is Robot Rights
The study of robot ethics, which is also referred to as "roboethics," focuses on the ethical dilemmas that arise with robots, such as whether or not robots constitute a threat to humans in the long run or in the short run, whether or not certain applications of robots are problematic, and how robots should be constructed in order for them to behave "ethically." Alternately, the term "roboethics" refers to the ethics of human behavior toward robots, particularly in light of the rapid advancements being made in robot technology. It is a subfield of the ethics of technology, more specifically information technology, and it has tight linkages to both legal and socio-economic concerns. This topic is known as robot ethics. Researchers from a wide variety of fields are starting to investigate the moral and ethical implications of developing robotic technology and introducing it into communities in a way that will not compromise the protection of the human species.

Robot Rights - Fouad Sabry
Chapter 1: Robot ethics
The study of robot ethics, which is also referred to as roboethics,
focuses on the moral issues that are raised by robots, such as whether or not robots pose a threat to humans in the long or short run, whether or not certain applications of robots (like those used in healthcare or as killer robots
in war) are problematic, and how robots should be designed so that they behave ethically
(this last concern is also called machine ethics). Alternately, the term roboethics
refers to the ethics of human conduct toward robots, particularly in light of the rapid advancements being made in robot technology.
The handling of non-human or non-biological entities and their possible spirituality
is a topic that has been at the center of much of the debate around ethics. This idea was also applied to the field of robotics, which brings us to another fundamental theme that has to do with the evolution of machines and ultimately robots. Runaround (story), a science fiction short story written by Isaac Asimov in 1942, was one of the first publications to directly address and set the foundation for robot ethics. The story featured Asimov's well-known Three Laws of Robotics, and it was considered one of the first publications to directly address and set the foundation for robot ethics. In the context of his science fiction writings, Asimov made consistent adjustments to these three laws, and in the end, he added a fourth rule, which he referred to as the zeroth law, to come before the first three. Gianmarco Veruggio is the one who most likely came up with the word roboethics
as a shorthand. This Roboethics Symposium came about as a result of the work done by the School of Robotics, which is a charitable organization whose mission is to increase awareness of the field of robotics research among students and the general public. After having conversations with students and others who were not experts in the field, Gianmarco Veruggio and Fiorella Operto came to the conclusion that it was essential to disseminate accurate perceptions among the general public about the purported hazards that are associated with robotics. They believed that a fruitful debate that was based on accurate insights and real knowledge could encourage individuals to take an active role in the education of public opinion, enable individuals to comprehend the positive applications of the new technology, and prevent individuals from abusing it. Daniela Cerqui, an anthropologist, recognized three primary ethical viewpoints that emerged from two days of rigorous discourse after two days of heated argument:
those who aren't concerned about morality or ethics. They do not believe that they have any social or moral responsibilities in the job that they undertake because they see the acts that they do as being purely technical.
Those who are interested in ethical concerns that have a short-term focus.
This individual, according to their profile, questions are expressed in terms of good
or bad,
and refer to some cultural values.
Take, for example:
They are of the opinion that robots should behave in accordance with societal customs.
This will include respecting
and helping humans in diverse areas such as implementing laws or in helping elderly people.
(Considerations of this kind are critical, but we have to remember that the values used to define the bad
and the good
are relative.
They are the modern ideals of the nations that have industrialized their economies.
Those who focus their considerations on the more distant ethical problems, about, as an illustration, the Digital divide
between South and North, or children and senior citizens.
They are conscious of the vast economic divide that exists between industrialized and developing nations.
and question whether the latter shouldn't modify their approach to the development of robots in order to make it more applicable to the former's needs.
They do not pose the question of what for in an unambiguous manner.
However, we may take it for granted that it is understood.
The field of robot ethics has seen several significant events and undertakings recently. RoboHub and the euRobotics ELS discussion group have both recently made announcements about upcoming events related to the field:
