Engineering and reverse-engineering morality

Abstract

Recent years have witnessed a burst of progress on building formal models of moral decision-making. In psychology, neuroscience and philosophy, the goal has been to “reverse-engineer” the principles of human morality. Meanwhile, in AI ethics, the goal has been to engineer systems that can make moral decisions, in some ways inspired by how humans do this. We aim to showcase the state of the art in both fields and to show how they can be hybridized into a computational cognitive science of morality.
