This paper proposes a research direction to advance AI which draws inspiration from
cognitive theories of human decision making. The premise is that if we gain insights about …

As AI systems become an increasing part of people's everyday lives, it becomes ever more
important that they understand people's ethical norms. Motivated by descriptive ethics, a …

Artificial intelligence (AI) offers much promise for improving healthcare. However, it runs the
looming risk of causing individual and societal harms; for instance, exacerbating inequalities …

Autonomous cyber-physical agents play an increasingly large role in our lives. To ensure
that they behave in ways aligned with the values of society, we must develop techniques that …

Algorithms and machine learning models, including the decisions made by these models,
are becoming ubiquitous in our daily life, including hiring. We make no value judgment …

The pursuit of values drives human behavior and promotes cooperation. Existing research is
focused on general (eg, Schwartz) values that transcend contexts. However, context-specific …

Machine ethics is the field that studies how ethical behaviour can be accomplished by
autonomous systems. While there exist some systematic reviews aiming to consolidate the …

AI research is being challenged with ensuring that autonomous agents learn to behave
ethically, namely in alignment with moral values. Here, we propose a novel way of tackling …

The more AI agents are deployed in scenarios with possibly unexpected situations, the more
they need to be flexible, adaptive, and creative in achieving the goal we have given them …

When an AI system interacts with multiple users, it frequently needs to make allocation
decisions. For instance, a virtual agent decides whom to pay attention to in a group, or a …
