In this episode, we focus on Ethics for People Who Work in Tech. We talk about the ethics of technology, and a three-step approach to ethical reflection, inquiry, and deliberation. We discuss whether technology is neutral, what value is, the trolley problem, the importance of privacy for users, and responsibility. We talk about four different ethical approaches: consequentialism, deontology, relational ethics, and virtue ethics. We discuss where people can start when developing a new kind of technology, and we talk about three different methods: Human-Centred Design, Value Sensitive Design, and Responsible Innovation.
