计算机伦理学是伦理学研究和应用的特殊领域。计算机伦理学的特殊之处就在于它会碰到不断产生的大量的情况,对这些情况难以清楚地概念化并找到合理的伦理政策。人类共享一些基本价值,这些核心价值为我们提供评价我们行为和政策是否合理的标准。这些核心价值赋予我们采取某些行动,不去做其他行动的理由。采用伦理的观点,人们必须尊重他人以及他们的核心价值观。核心价值观为分析计算机伦理学提供了一个框架。通过使用核心价值框架,可以判断有些运用计算机技术的政策比其他的政策好。如果我们能够避免那些对他人造成严重伤害的政策,那将是朝向负责任的伦理行为的良好开端。责任要求我们对计算机不断改进的技术采纳伦理的观点,进行不间断的概念分析、形成政策及证明其正确性。
Computer ethics is a special field of ethics research and application. The special feature of computer ethics is that it encounters a large number of continually emerging situations, making it difficult to clearly conceptualize these situations and find reasonable ethical policies. Humans share some basic values, which provide us with a standard to evaluate the reasonableness of our actions and policies. These core values give us some reasons to take no action. From an ethical point of view, one must respect others and their core values. Core values provide a framework for analyzing computer ethics. Using the core value framework, one can judge that some policies that use computer technology are better than others. If we can avoid policies that cause serious harm to others, that will be a good start towards responsible ethical behavior. Responsibility requires that we adopt the ethical view of the ever-evolving technology of computers, conduct uninterrupted conceptual analysis, formulate policies and prove their correctness.
