Robots, Ethics, and the Future of Warfare
Dr. Tom Williams challenges the argument that robotic soldiers could act more ethically than humans. He suggests that instead of optimizing conflict, society should work toward preventing it — and ensure robotics serves the public, not the powerful.

Podcast · Degrees of Freedom · The Degrees of Freedom podcast aims to empower learners and teachers in Higher Education in their goals. We host conversations between teachers and students on pedagogical, practical, cultural, and inspirational topics with the goals of strengthening the community and its members. -+—-+—-+—-+—-+—-+—-+—-+—-+—-+- The podcast is produced at the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Science of the University of Groningen, in The Netherlands, by Tassos Sarampalis and Marcello Seri.
I think the discussion we had in latest #degreesoffreedom episode is even more relevant in light of the recent turn of events here in the Netherlands.
The electoral result has reopened for me the wound left by Brexit, which I though closed by now. That feeling of not belonging and not being welcome, besides all signs saying the opposite in Groningen is there and hard to ignore.

Recently @TSarampalis@twitter and I met with @[email protected] and Leah Henderson to talk about bridging science and society and educate to build societal trust. Perhaps I was too naive with my opinions, but this discussion was quite transformative for me and I am still wrapping my head around some of the points we touched upon You can find this episode of #degreesoffreedom in you preferred platform or on https://soundcloud.com/degrees_of_freedom/s03e03-education-and-public-trust-in-science
