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:
- How do AI and /or robotics contribute to value change?
- How can we study value change via AI and / or robotics?
- How should AI and / or robotics deal with value change?
