Philosophy Wire: Automatic airplanes, humans, boundaries.

p018hgsdPhilosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2013-05-07]: Planes that will fly without pilots are to become a reality. [source: web news] Automation is good for some things. It really helps to save lives some times. But there is a fine line between saving lives and making them completely obsolete. If everything is automated, then there will be no lives to “save”… And if we do not want that to happen, we must define from now the boundaries of the area which must remain under human control. Before it’s too late.
