Agenda • • • What are Cognitive Nanorobots? Geoethics of Cognitive Nanorobots Cognition: Perception and Memory Models of Ethics Killer Apps of Cognitive Nanorobots Ethics of Cognitive Nanorobots 3
What are Cognitive Nanorobots? • Analog to Medical Nanorobots • Cognition is just another… – Biological function – ‘Pathology’ to ameliorate • Biocompatibility of medical nanorobots with neural cells 1 – Mechanical – Physiological – Immunological – Cytological – Biochemical Images: corporeality. net, fineartamerica. com 1 Freitas, R Jr. Nanomedicine, Volume IIA: Biocompatibility. 15. 3. 6. 5 Biocompatibility with Neural Cells. http: //www. nanomedicine. com/NMIIA/15. 3. 6. 5. htm 4
Geoethics of Cognitive Nanorobots • Level I Geoethical Concerns – – – Manufacturing and disposal Neural prosthesis Functionality Accessibility (digital divide) Security and mind viruses Authentication • Level II Geoethical Concerns – Transformation, editing of human cognitive processes – Edits could include environmental axiology (re-valorization) 5
Cognition: Perception and Memory • Henri Bergson (1859 -1941) – Mathematician – Quantum mechanics predictor – Science and psychology scholar • Doubling (quantitative and qualitative (overlapping)) – Time, intensity, state, memory – Self, consciousness • Time: clock time and the inner experience of time (duration) • Free will over determinism – Spontaneity 6
Perception and Memory • Topic: mind/body dualism • Perception and memory are an interactive process of the body and mind • Time and movement • Privilege time as space, how/when (not where) memory is stored • Exercise: memory retrieval 7
Models of Ethics • Act-based (right act with right motive) – Categorical Imperative (always right/wrong) (Kant) – Utilitarianism (outcome maximization) and Consequentialism (end justifies means) (Bentham, Mill) • Agent-based – Virtue ethics: role of character (Aristotle, Aquinas) – Dispositionism: individual traits predict behavior • Situation, context, and ecosystem-based (1968) – Situationism: social context produces behavior – Ethics of Care (Gilligan): morality arises from interaction 8
Process Philosopher Ethics • Bergson – Direct contact with the real, true duration • Heidegger – A conscious authentic life – Dwell meaningfully as human implacement, being ‘in’ place, as an extension of identity • Foucault – Power: omnipresent micropower relations, biopower and self-disciplinary power • Deleuze – Thinking and life, plane of immanence – Non-fascist life, desiring-production 9
Connecting Perception to Ethics: Machine Ethics Interfaces • Possibility of ‘objective’ reality as an input? • Many-tiered existing biases – Biology – Society/culture – Individual/group • Ethics of Reality • UX issues 10
Killer Apps of Cognitive Nanorobotics • Bias reduction • Memory management • Value system elicitation and optimization • Perceptual enhancement – Different ‘objective’ realities – See time, see movement in time and space – Notice subjective experience • Desire elicitation and modification 11
Individual / Group Ethics • Trend of self-awareness, disclosure, destigmatization, taboo removal Medicine (genomics), behavior (QS), personal/professional life blending, sexual orientation, gender identification Time Neurodiversity: mental health, mental performance Desires now • Group ethics models – Old: okay unless harms others, ‘do unto others’ – New: Negotiation per disclosure, automated mediation through anonymous disclosure 12
Geoethics of Cognitive Nanorobots • Overt consideration of machine ethics modules • Subjective experience enhancement • Ethics/values/desires elicitation and optimization • Progression and transformation in ethics paradigms 13
