Ethics and Simulation: From AI to Virtual Reality
The Centre de recherche en éthique (CRÉ) and the International Observatory on the Societal Impacts of AI and Digital Technology (OBVIA) present the 3rd Seminar in AI Ethics entitled “Ethics and simulation: from AI to virtual reality”.
The notion of simulation is at the heart of information technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR). Rightly or wrongly, AI can be defined as an attempt to simulate human or animal intelligence. Virtual reality headsets, on the other hand, allow people to immerse themselves in a universe – or metaverse – created by algorithms. In ethics, the notion of simulation has resonances with deception or lying. But it is also a common tool with thought experiments which are indeed simulations of cases allowing us to test our moral intuitions.
