Discussing the Morality of AI with Toby Walsh (ANU/Canberra Times Meet the Author Series)

On 10 May 2022, Toby Walsh was in conversation with Andrew Leigh, discussing Toby’s new book ‘Machines Behaving Badly: The Morality of AI’. Toby, a world-leading researcher in the field of artificial intelligence, examines the ethical issues we face in a future dominated by artificial intelligence. Is Alexa racist? Can robots have rights? What happens if a self-driving car kills someone? What limitations should we put on the use of facial recognition? Can we build moral machines? The conversation took place as part of the ANU/Canberra Times Meet the Author Series, in association with Harry Hartog Bookshop.
