Our lives will increasingly depend on the decisions robots will make. Robots will drive our cars, run our homes and treat our diseases. But how can we teach robots to make moral judgements, and do they have to be sentient to behave ethically? Join Alan Winfield and Raja Chatila to explore these fascinating and vital questions.

In partnership with the Science and Technology Department of the French Embassy.

Discounted tickets are available to Members of the Ri. Find out more about how to join our community.
