Social robots that engage with humans elicit an emotional and social response that raises the question of whether robots deserve moral consideration. Sweeney's fictional dualism model is a distinctive and ethically appropriate framework for emotional engagement without moral consideration, while providing conditions for trusting social robots.
Paula Sweeney is senior lecturer at the University of Aberdeen. She previously published in philosophy of language and the philosophy of time but most recently has been gripped by philosophical questions arising from our engagement with robots and other social technologies.
