Robots and Philosophy - Docklands Philosophy Walk

Details

Can robots possess moral agency?
Should self-aware robots have rights?
What risks arise from robots making decisions?
How should we balance innovation with ethical design?

Join us to discuss some of the above (AI generated) questions and more while exploring the futuristic surrounding of Canary Wharf and the Docklands area.

Meet outside the Jubilee Line Canary Wharf Underground Station - West Exit at 11am. Canary Wharf has multiple stations and the underground station has multiple exits so please be careful to meet at the correct location. Here is a link to what the meeting location looks like:

Look out for some relevant links and reference material added later in comments below.

Please read the following notes carefully and check the meeting point location details before attending!

This is a walking discussion group with handouts with quotes and questions provided as a starting point. The only rule is to keep all discussion friendly and constructive and be respectful of other attendees. No dogs please as they can be distracting in the group discussion. Please arrive early: we wait a maximum of 15 minutes at the meeting location and once we have left it will be very difficult to find us. The walk will go ahead no matter the weather so do dress appropriately and bring an umbrella if needed.

There is a £5 fee for this walk to contribute towards the meetup.com fees and the time put in to prepare the walk and notes.
**You can pay in cash on the day or via this stripe link: https://buy.stripe.com/3cs5mi0aD3SxeT65km**
