DIJ Panel discussion „Human-Machine Interaction and Responsibility" on March 27
From: Luise Kahlow <kahlow@dijtokyo.org>
Date: 2023/03/13
We cordially invite you to the panel discussion „Human-Machine Interaction and Responsibility", organized by the German Research Foundation (DFG), German Institute for Japanese Studies (DIJ), and German Centre for Research and Innovation Tokyo (DWIH)
Panel discussion „Human-Machine Interaction and Responsibility"
March 27, 2023, 15:00 - 18:00 (JST) at the DIJ Tokyo
Link: https://dij.tokyo/hmir
Rapid advancements in new technologies, such as robots and AI, brought about new social practices and realities. These developments come with manifold expectations and concerns, which mirror our understanding of what it means to be human. In addition, these new technologies urge us to re-examine our understanding of key concepts such as responsibility and think about the kind of future society in which we would like to live.
Drawing on perspectives from technological development, psychology, philosophy, social sciences, literature and art studies, we will discuss with experts questions on psycho-social aspects of human-machine interaction and their consequences, as well as ethical, legal, and socio-political implications. One important issue will be people's rights and responsibilities when collaborating with machines and AI: Who will be credited for achievements, and who will be held responsible for tragic accidents? Furthermore, how does responsibility depend on the context and type of interaction between humans and machines? How should robots or AI be designed to be beneficial for society? Finally, what could a concept of co-responsibility look like?
