인공지능으로부터 야기되는 윤리적 문제에 대한 사회적 합의는 가능한가? - 고인석 저, 『인공지능과 로봇의 윤리』에서 인공지능의 자율성과 책임귀속의 문제를 중심으로

Ko In-seok in his The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and Robots critically examines the functions of artificial intelligence and some philosophical issues that may arise from it, as well as the relevant concepts - autonomy, action, intention, perception, agency, etc. Through this, he discusses that the autonomy of humans and the autonomy of artifacts are distinguished, and since the autonomy of artifacts is different from that of humans and the operation of artifacts is different from the autonomous actions of humans. He argues that regulations on these beings must be prepared through social consensus and decision. I indicate that the following two things must be prerequisite for his discussion to be accepted. One is whether we are truly autonomous beings in decision-making, and the other is whether our social consensus on beings whose internal states are unknown is reasonable. Through this, I argue that the discussion of the various types of ethical problems that will be raised by artificial intelligence is not about artificial intelligence itself, rather it is essentially a discussion about our ethical judgments.
