The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Computers, like all other technology’s, are neutral. This team (red) is for the motion Other Technologies Inanimate Amoral

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. The Red Team Leader: Paul BiggarSlides by: David Coen Group 1: Emmet Clarke (speaker) Benjamin Chillingworth Susan Crosse Damien Conlon Group 2: Robert Allison (speaker) Eoin Creedon David Coen Andrew Brosnan David Burke Group 3: Keith Curley (speaker) Barry Curran Garreth Carter Stuart Butler Group 4: Stephen Burke (speaker) Rory Bland Sunny Bavalia Darren Caulfield

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Definition of Motion Teamline Computers:  hardware which uses software to input data from a user Technology:  an advance for the good of society all things, good or bad, right or wrong, come from the user

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Emmet Clarke

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Neutrality “ The creation and existence of an artefact does not necessitate its use for good and evil”, Russell James Woodruff, On The Value-Neutrality of Technology None of an items uses is dictated by the item itself  A knife can cut, cure or kill WE Decide

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Technology’s Uses In the kitchen, the:  washing machine washes  cooker cooks  refrigerator cools In the office, the:  photocopier copies  shredder shreds  computer computes

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Technology’s Uses At home:  the computer has become a tool used by Joe Soap IMAC TM

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Robert Allison

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Computer  without a user, is as useless as sand  a more complex arrangement of molecules Inanimatness

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Development Both computers and rail transport system have allowed people to do things faster

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Misinterpretation Bad Press

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. No Emotions Deep Blue Yesss! I won! Deep Blue did not  think about each move  or feel emotion when it won

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. “I think therefore I am” Descartes

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Keith Curley

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Keith Curley (1) Computers are amoral. They:  have no ethics,  no beliefs,  no feelings,  and are unable to think for themselves. They cannot differentiate between right and wrong

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Keith Curley (2) All actions are wholly based on the users input The decisions they do make are merely based on hard facts and weighted calculations  They do not judge by appearance, background etc.  Are humans so objective ?!?!?

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Keith Curley (3) on its own = 0 + user = Potential for good or evil

The computer isn’t controlling this, David is. Summary all things, good or bad, right or wrong, come from the user tools are useless without a user a computer is inanimate and misinterpreted amoral, ethicless machines
