Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly influencing our everyday actions - and is thus becoming an essential subject of ethical questions: Are the decisions generated by artificial intelligence free of discrimination? Is the use of AI-controlled robots, for example in care, legitimate, sensible or perhaps even ethically required? Who or which authority takes responsibility if a fully autonomous AI system carries out incorrect or even prohibited actions? What does it even mean that an AI "decides" or "acts", or is an AI even capable of doing so? And finally, is it even possible to design a "moral AI" and which theoretical approaches are being discussed in research on this? The LMU has asked two of its scientists and a graduate to share their findings and approaches to the ethical challenges of artificial intelligence with the public as part of the AI Lectures. The discussion will be held by Fiorella Battaglia, private lecturer at the Chair of Philosophy and Political Theory, Timo Greger, scientific coordinator and co-project leader of “AI and Ethics” at the Faculty of Philosophy, Philosophy of Science and Religious Studies, and graduate Felicia Kuckertz, who was awarded a research prize for her bachelor’s thesis on “AI-supported military robots and moral responsibility.” The moderator will be Martin Wirsing, Professor of Computer Science at LMU and a sought-after expert in the field of programming, software engineering and development. 00:00:00 Introduction 00:06:53 Lecture by Dr. Timo Greger 00:19:00 Questions about the lecture by Dr. Timo Greger 00:25:56 Lecture by Felicia Kuckertz 00:35:49 Questions about the lecture by Felicia Kuckertz 00:48:52 Lecture by PD Dr. Fiorella Battaglia 00:56:52 Questions from the audience 01:27:10 Closing remarks
