Well, let’s hope we do a better job teaching morals to robots than we are doing with our children.

The much larger question is - Do we have enough moral values, moral grounding and sense of right and wrong anymore to be able to teach robots right and wrong in the first place

Easy answer...no b/c robots are machines that do our will via programming, they are our moral agents. If the programming is corrupt the robots actions will be. Theres just no way to shift blame for our corruption onto the machine. Like that saying goes....guns dont kill, people do. Its the very same principle.

Define right and wrong.

Western values of right and wrong are Judeo/Christian.

Liberals have no values except for the vestigial Judeo/Christian values in the society they are trying to destroy.

Can we teach robots right from wrong?

Didn't work for John Kerry

Every robot ever made knows right from wrong. We engineers refer to it as “feedback”.

The programmers would need to know the difference.

Isaac Asimov, call your office. We need you to consult on your three laws of robotics.
