要与强大的技术共同过上好的生活，我们需要品格——诚实、勇气和关怀等德性——而人工智能是一面镜子，映照出我们的过去，而不是我们的可能性。

爱丁堡的技术哲学家：与人工智能和其他新兴技术一起好好生活，需要源自亚里士多德、儒家和佛教伦理学的“技术道德德性”——而今天的人工智能是我们过去的镜子，而不是一个心灵。

要与新兴技术共处而过上好生活，需要从亚里士多德、儒家和佛教伦理中汲取的“技术道德美德”。
当今的人工智能系统是镜子，把我们过去数据中的模式反射给我们；把它们当作心智，会危及我们选择另一种未来的能力。
立场
“Technology and the Virtues” argues that rule-based ethics cannot keep pace with emerging technologies such as social media, robots and artificial intelligence, whose effects are unpredictable and global. What we need instead is character: “technomoral virtues” – honesty, self-control, humility, justice, courage, empathy, care, civility, flexibility, perspective, magnanimity and, uniting them, technomoral wisdom – cultivated through practice. She builds this account from three traditions, Aristotelian, Confucian and Buddhist ethics, which share the idea that virtue is acquired through habituation, attention and moral exemplars. She also warns of “moral deskilling”: when machines take over caring, judging or fighting, humans may lose the practical skills that virtue requires. “The AI Mirror” argues that today’s AI systems, trained on records of past human behaviour, are mirrors rather than minds: they reflect back our existing patterns, including our biases, and tempt us to mistake this reflection for a superior intelligence. The danger is less that machines become like us than that we come to see ourselves in their image and lose confidence in our own capacity to reason, judge and imagine new possibilities.

She was president of the Society for Philosophy and Technology and worked as a consulting AI ethicist for Google Cloud. In 2020 she became the first holder of the Baillie Gifford Chair in the Ethics of Data and Artificial Intelligence at the University of Edinburgh, where she directs the Centre for Technomoral Futures at the Edinburgh Futures Institute and co-directs the research programme BRAID (Bridging Responsible AI Divides).
