<Title>Can we create moral machines? What would happen if we do?</Title>

    <div class="html-content">What if we have a car approaching a pedestrian crossing and both lanes are occupied with people. One lane has businesspeople crossing while the other lane has athletes running. The car cannot avoid both lanes and now the car and its driver must decide which pedestrians to avoid. What would a moral machine do? What would a moral driver do? No easy answers. It is now critical than ever before not only to teach and learn how to build scalable systems but to understand the social impact of the technology we teach and build. Come join us in the <a href="https://csprd-web.ps.umbc.edu/psc/ps/EMPLOYEE/SA/s/WEBLIB_HCX_CM.H_CLASS_DETAILS.FieldFormula.IScript_Main?institution=UMBC1&amp;x_term=2262&amp;class_nbr=2404" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">AI Agent Computing class</a> to understand the social impact of multi-agent systems and how we can build a better future for you, me, and all of us together.
