This course explores the philosophical and ethical implications of technological developments that promise to shape ‒ and perhaps to jeopardize ‒ human life and society in the 21st Century: Artificial Intelligence. Robots as social companions. Robots in military and medical settings. Cloning. Genetic modification and technological implants for superhuman abilities. Students will improve their insight as well as their critical reasoning skills as we examine, analyze, and evaluate such controversial topics through the lens of philosophical reasoning. Throughout the course we will ask what sort of beings do we want to be and what sort of society do we want to have.
