There is no clear guide that humans agree on for morality, and research shows that people expect robots to behave differently than other humans when making potentially life-or-death decisions.
Whether it’s in our cars, our hospitals or our homes, we’ll soon depend upon robots to make judgement calls in which human lives are at stake.
