KEYNOTE SPEAKERS * Arianna Betti (Professor (Chair) of Philosophy of Language, the Unive= rsity of Amsterdam) * John Danaher (Author of Automation and Utopia and Senior Lecturer of = Law, Galway University) * Bertram F. Malle (Professor, the Department of Cognitive, Linguistic,= and Psychological Sciences, Brown University) DESCRIPTION Advances in Artificial Intelligence and robotics stand to change many aspec= ts of our lives, including our values. If trends continue as expected, many= industries will undergo automation in the near future, calling into questi= on whether we can still value the sense of identity and security our occupa= tions once (ideally) provided us. Likewise, the advent of social robots app= ears to be shifting the meaning of numerous, long-standing values associate= d with interpersonal relationships, like care, friendship and privacy. Furt= hermore, powerful actors' and institutions' increasing reliance on AI to ma= ke decisions that affect how people live their lives, has given rise to the= development of new values such as algorithmic transparency, meaningful hum= an control and explainability. During the Machines of Change: Robots, AI and Value Change workshop, we wil= l explore how the deployment of Artificial Intelligence and robots leads to= value change and how we can study value change, as a phenomenon, via these= technologies. The workshop will centre around the following three, major t= hemes: 1. How do AI and /or robotics contribute to value change? 2. How can we study value change via AI and / or robotics? 3. How should AI and / or robotics deal with value change? ORGANIZERS * Ibo van de Poel (Professor, Ethics and Philosophy of Technology, Poli= cy and Management at Delft University of Technology) * Olya Kudina (Assistant Professor, Ethics and Philosophy of Technology= at Delft University of Technology) * Steffen Steinert (Post-Doctoral Researcher, Ethics and Philosophy of = Technology, Policy and Management at Delft University of Technology) * Tom Coggins (PhD Candidate, Ethics and Philosophy of Technology, Poli= cy and Management at Delft University of Technology) FUNDING The workshop is part of the project ValueChange that has received funding f= rom the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon = 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 788321.
