Ethical lessons learned from computer science

The polymorphy described in the table above sits at the core of this discussion. To show this more clearly, a type of logic will be established, but instead of reasoning, and determining whether something is true or false, it will make moral judgments, telling whether something is good or bad. Some core thoughts of positivistic and teleological ethics will be formalized in this logic to give a computational model of telling right from wrong. A fictional artificial intelligence is discussed, using insights provided by metamathematics, and the bargaining problem, a philosophical question with wide-ranging implications, will be approached with game gheory. But before going into too much detail about how to approach these subjects from a computer scientist's point of view, it might be helpful to briefly review these ethical topics from a classical point of view.
