In recent years, modern ethics began to systematically reflect the relationships between humans and objects, and the future ethics will need to account for the relationships between humans and intelligent machines. This is mainly because humans may be overtaken by machines in intelligence through which humans gain dominance over all other natural objects. On the ethical thinking of the man-machine relationship, an idea is to be inclined to do subtraction rather than addition. Specifically, we should give priority to and focus on limiting the means and abilities of intelligent machines rather than how to cultivate and set the value judgments of their friendliness. In other words, we should concentrate on how to limit the development of intelligent machines to specialization and miniaturization, especially keeping them within the scope of non-violence.展开更多
