The future of European robo-ethics
"Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) have become one of the most
prominent technological trends of our century. However, the swift
increase in their use and development presents new and difficult
challenges for our societies.
The aim of this consultation is to launch a broad based debate with a wide range of stakeholders on the European Parliament report on civil law rules on robotics
((2015/2103(INL)). The results of the consultation will feed into the
European Parliamentary Research Service’s forthcoming ‘Cost of
non-Europe on robotics and artificial intelligence’ report.
This consultation specifically seeks views on how to best address the
challenging ethical, economic, legal and social issues related to the
developments in the area of robotics and AI for civil use, as identified
in the report. The European Parliament will debate and vote on the
report of the Committee on Legal Affairs in Plenary in February 2017.
The current public consultation will also contribute to possible further
European Parliament initiatives to represent citizen’s interests in the
field. This consultation will contribute to assessing the feasibility
and content of further potential EU policy initiatives on robotics and
AI, to maximise the socio-economic opportunities provided by these
technological developments for businesses, citizens and governments, and
minimise possible negative disruptions."
