2015 APR 29 (VerticalNews) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Journal of Engineering -- New research on
Artificial Intelligence is the subject of a report. According to news reporting originating from London, United
Kingdom, by VerticalNews editors, the research stated, "The enduring innovations in artificial intelligence and
robotics offer the promised capacity of computer consciousness, sentience and rationality. The development of
these advanced technologies have been considered to merit rights, however these can only be ascribed in the
context of commensurate responsibilities and duties."
Our news editors obtained a quote from the research from the University of London Imperial College, "This
represents the discernable next-step for evolution in this field. Addressing these needs requires attention to the
philosophical perspectives of moral responsibility for artificial intelligence and robotics. A contrast to the moral
status of animals may be considered. At a practical level, the attainment of responsibilities by artificial intelligence
and robots can benefit from the established responsibilities and duties of human society, as their subsistence
exists within this domain. These responsibilities can be further interpreted and crystalized through legal principles,
many of which have been conserved from ancient Roman law."
According to the news editors, the research concluded: "The ultimate and unified goal of stipulating these
responsibilities resides through the advancement of mankind and the enduring preservation of the core tenets of
humanity."
