Virtual Ethics Group

As we spend more and more time in virtual environments, it will lead to important changes in daily life and activity. Internet and Virtual Reality Technologies have the potential to fundamentally change our relationship with nature, with each other, and with ourselves, raising a number of important topics in the field of ethics.  “How should the technology to be created, used, and understood?”  How should we regulate social interaction?”  “What is the ideal society?”  “And what kind of people do we want to be?” In Short, the development of Internet and Virtual Reality Technologies raise a number of traditional moral questions about the use, impact, and design of new technologies, existential questions about who we want to be, and questions about the relationship between the individual and the state.
