Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 1, Problem 12E
Explanation of Solution
Statement
- Computers only do what the programmers command them to do, but in another sense what the programmers consciously tells the computer to do often has very little to do with what the computer actually does.
- Anyone who has written a program with a bug knows this, as does anyone who has written a successful machine learning program...

Is it morally acceptable to treat a robot with a high degree of artificial intelligence as a person? Why?
There is some uncertainty as to whether or not the rise of sentient robots with the ability to make their own choices poses a genuine danger, given the current rate of technological assimilation among humans. For what reason not, then?
Is the creation of intelligent robots capable of making judgments a real threat, given the way technology is being incorporated with the human race? What is your reasoning?
