I think that this ethical survey ignored the most basic moral conundrum that this new technological marvel presents; should we turnover ethical questions to machines?
I say no.
I dont think that we write an ethical algorithm that can make snap decisions in a fraction of a second deciding life or death.
I certainly dont think it would be ethical to do so.

Well we do have a lot of computer aided whatever whose function is important to safety.
Ultimately, though, these are just machines carrying out someone’s will. And always will be — this is why I scoff at the idea of a singularity of machine takeover, though I might not scoff at much at the idea of people choosing to WORSHIP machines. It’s wrong, but always possible.
