Robot ethics, sometimes known as "roboethics", concerns ethical problems that occur with robots, such as whether robots pose a threat to humans in the long or short run, whether some uses of robots are problematic (such as in healthcare or as 'killer robots' in war), and how robots should be designed such that they act 'ethically' (this last concern is also called machine ethics).
The term "robot ethics" (sometimes "roboethics") refers to the morality of how humans design, construct, use and treat robots. [14] Robot ethics intersect with the ethics of AI. Robots are physical machines whereas AI can be only software. [15] Not all robots function through AI systems and not all AI systems are robots. Robot ethics considers ...

These include: the South Korean Government's proposal in 2007 of a Robot Ethics Charter; a 2011 proposal from the U.K. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council of five ethical “principles for designers, builders, and users of robots”;
The Machine Question: Critical Perspectives on AI, Robots, and Ethics is a 2012 nonfiction book by David J. Gunkel that discusses the evolution of the theory of human ethical responsibilities toward non-human things and to what extent intelligent, autonomous machines can be considered to have legitimate moral responsibilities and what legitimate claims to moral consideration they can hold.
In 2012 Winfield joined the British Standards Institute working group on robot ethics [51] which drafted BS 8611:2016 Robots and robotic devices: Guide to the ethical design and application of robots and robotic systems. [18] From 2015 to 2018 Winfield was a member of the Ethics Advisory Board of the EU Human Brain Project. [52]

James H. Moor, one of the pioneering theoreticians in the field of computer ethics, defines four kinds of ethical robots.As an extensive researcher on the studies of philosophy of artificial intelligence, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, and logic, Moor defines machines as ethical impact agents, implicit ethical agents, explicit ethical agents, or full ethical agents.
