There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu
*********************************
The Ethics, Technology, and Human Interaction Center (ETHICx) would like to invite you to another Ethics & Coffee event on Thursday, March 31, from 11 a.m. to noon.
We will discuss Delphi, a prototype model that is being trained to learn morality and to make ethical decisions. Can "moral machines" such as this be designed responsibly?
Please join us for a discussion of this question in the Ethics & Coffee series. Ethics & Coffee is a monthly event by ETHICx.
