From the Ell's ethics guidelines for Al, what does 'The Principle of Autonomy,' mean?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Professor David Chalmers described consciousness as having two questions: 'What is it like to be conscious?' and 'Can machines be conscious?'. The first question, 'What is it like to be conscious?', is an attempt to understand what it is like to experience the subjective aspects of consciousness, such as feeling, emotion, and perception. The second question, 'Can machines be conscious?', is an attempt to understand whether or not machines can have the same kinds of subjective experiences as humans. For more information, please see the BCS Foundation Certificate In Artificial Intelligence Study Guide or the resources listed above.

I don't think the 'Principle of Autonomy' is about robots having free will. That would be like giving a toaster the power to choose whether or not it wants to make toast. Definitely going with D on this one.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the answer was 'robots will behave as humans'? Like, imagine an AI system getting a case of the Mondays or arguing about who left their dirty dishes in the break room. But yeah, D is the way to go.

Hmm, I'm not sure if 'human-centric' is the right interpretation here. Wouldn't that go against the whole idea of AI being independent? I'm leaning towards D as well.

Robots having freewill doesn't seem right in this context.

I think 'The Principle of Autonomy' means that Al systems will preserve human agency.

I'm not sure, but C also sounds plausible since it mentions being human-centric.

The 'Principle of Autonomy' doesn't mean robots will have free will, that's just crazy! It's clearly about preserving human agency, so I'd go with option D.

But what about option C? Doesn't that also relate to human agency?
