This site is the culmination of a research project on the search for an ethics of artificial intelligence. The site is divided into two major parts with an "intermission" in between. The first half of the site provides an overview of AI today, its goals, approaches, and philosophies. The second half addresses questions of ethics that arise in artificial intelligence, asking questions and raising concerns. In between, the question is addressed of the discrepancy between the ideas of AI and the actual results of AI thus far. Although the sections of this site can be read in any order, the narrative of the site will flow most smoothly if the sections are read top to bottom, left to right. Thank you.
