Project title *
EthicsNet Dataset for Machine Ethics
Description *
EthicsNet is a machine ethics research social enterprise. We are creating the first dataset for machine ethics, alongside various co-creation tools necessary to curate and develop it. Machine Intelligence requires large, well-documented datasets for it to be trained upon. Datasets often matter more than algorithms per se, though they rarely get credit for the value that they can create. Datasets such as Fei-Fei Li's ImageNet have enabled the recent expansion in capability of machine intelligence in powerful new ways that otherwise would be impossible. We want to do the same for the space of ethics – a living dataset that can expand in scope and nuance over time, and empower socially-aware thinking machines for generations to come.
