The documents of Oliver Bendel (School of Business FHNW), Eric Hilgendorf (University of W\u00fcrzburg), Norbert Elkman (Fraunhofer IPK) and Ryan Calo (University of Washington) were published in July on the website of the German Bundestag. Answering the question &#8222;Apart from legal questions, for example concerning responsibility and liability, where will ethical questions, in particular, also arise with regard to the use of artificial intelligence or as a result of the aggregation of information and algorithms?&#8220; the US scientist explained: &#8222;Robots and artificial intelligence raise just as many ethical questions as legal ones. We might ask, for instance, what sorts of activities we can ethically outsource to machines. Does Germany want to be a society that relegates the use of force, the education of children, or eldercare to robots? There are also serious challenges around the use of artificial intelligence to make material decisions about citizens in terms of minimizing bias and providing for transparency and accountability \u2013 issues already recognized to an extent by the EU Data Directive.&#8220; (Website German Bundestag) All documents (most of them in German) are available via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bundestag.de\/bundestag\/ausschuesse18\/a23\/anhoerungen\/fachgespraech\/428268\" target=\"_blank\">www.bundestag.de\/bundestag\/ausschuesse18\/a23\/anhoerungen\/fachgespraech\/428268<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prior to the hearing in the Parliament of the Federal Republic of Germany on 22 June 2016 from 4 \u2013 6 pm, the contracted experts had sent their written comments on ethical and legal issues with respect to the use of robots and artificial intelligence.
