> "... I spent last weekend at New York University listening to philosophers, scientists and engineers jaw about 
> “Ethics of Artificial Intelligence.” How can we ensure that driverless cars, drones and other smart technologies—such 
> as algorithms that decide whether a human gets parole or a loan or has breast  cancer--are used ethically? Also, what 
> happens if machines get really smart? Can we design them to be nice to us? Do we have to be nice to them? Speakers 
> responded to these questions in a welter of ways, as did members of the audience. How should I write it up? Too many 
> choices!..."
