  1. 9/25/2019 Introduction CS 391: Social and Ethical Issues in Computer Science Introduction • With rapid technological change, technology ‐ related fields are filled with important social, legal, and ethical issues. • As you work with technology, you will face many of these issues. You will have to make a decision about how to act. • Our goal in this course: give you some tools to help you analyze situations and make decisions whose implications will affect other people (thousands, millions, or even billions of people!) 1

  2. 9/25/2019 Introduction Topics include: • Software & hardware risks, accountability for software/hardware ‐ related harm • Governance & regulation • Privacy, data collection, surveillance • Artificial intelligence and algorithmic bias • Automation, labor, and work & wealth generation • Social media, online anonymity, conspiracy theories, fake news, free speech, censorship Introduction • Sometimes decisions related to these issues are extremely complex, involving many stakeholders and little existing precedent. • We need to understand ethics to be able to make choices in such situations. 2

  3. 9/25/2019 Ethics and Morality • Ethics and morality are both concepts related to making decisions and behaving rightly in the world. • These terms are often used interchangeably, but in this class, we want to distinguish between them. • In particular, morality refers to one’s own personal principles regarding right and wrong behavior. Ethics and Morality • By contrast, ethics refers to the study of morality. • Ethical study often results in sets of rules or guidelines for behaving rightly, e.g. a society’s laws, professional codes of conduct, religious principles, formal ethical frameworks (e.g. utilitarianism). • Generally, one’s own morals are drawn from many different sources like these. • Sometimes, one’s own morals can be in conflict with the ethics prescribed by a given source. • E.g., a defense lawyer’s morals may tell them that murder is absolutely wrong, but their professional ethical code may require them to defend to the best of their abilities a murderer who they know is guilty. 3

  4. 9/25/2019 Ethics and Morality In this course, we’ll examine several formal ethical frameworks, including: 1. Utilitarianism 2. Kantianism 3. Virtue Theory 4. The social contract Discussions in this course • This course will involve a lot of in ‐ person and online discussion of topics that can be controversial. • In general, you should adhere to these guidelines (adopted from Pam Van Londen) during class discussions http://classes.engr.oregonstate.edu/eecs/fall2019/cs391 ‐ 001/guidelines.html 4

  5. 9/25/2019 Participation Part of your grade for the course will be based on your participation in our course discussions. Suggestions: • Try to participate in the lecture discussion at least once per week. • This is not a hard and fast rule, just a guideline to help you understand how much I’d like you to participate. • Contribute something meaningful and relevant to the discussion. • Just commenting “good point” or something like that isn’t super meaningful. • Engage with your fellow students and the points they’re making. • Cite sources when you can. • Feel free to bring the discussion online using our course Canvas forum. 5
