Artificial intelligence and ethics of virtues

Abstract

This article aims to discuss the possibility of the existence of an artificial ethic being created and/or developed in a computer code and the operational impacts that this eventual absence causes in technologies used in the fields of Public Security and of Intelligence. The research is documentary in nature and uses reports and specialized bibliography to verify whether the machine should have embedded in its programming language the rules to make the best decision or whether it should act according to a learning model, which examines its procedure based on other behaviors considered exemplary. The study is justified to the extent that it is increasingly necessary to understand how a non-human moral subject would deliberate when faced with deontological dilemmas, especially those that arise in the midst of the actions of the Public Power in sensitive areas.
