| dc.description.abstract | The research project seeks to protect and promote the place of moral reasoning in the midst of the “networked age” of increased interconnectivity and increased reliance on digital technologies. The approach is to employ virtue ethics for navigating current challenges to moral decision-making and moral reasoning, in order to restore access to a sense of what is naturally good for human beings. I implicitly appeal to “first mover” justifications for the existence of God to dispute and reject the increasingly common assumption that technologies will at some point become self-directional—a big obstacle in people’s current regard for the permanent place of human moral reasoning. I argue that moral reasoning will endure despite all technological change by pointing out that, ultimately, these developments are guided by what we as a community hold to be goods in common, and that our search for deeper things such as goodness and happiness in the midst of the limitations imposed by our mortality will forever make us specialists in moral reasoning compared to artificial intelligence. | en_US |
