The Ethical Debates About Sex Robots and Its Reflections Abstract: In recent years, sex robots get more and more attention in academic circles, while some companies have begun to develop and sell sex robots. The results from surveys in many countries show that a certain percentage of people think they would have sex with a robots, but the percentage is not high. The ethical debates about sex robots mainly include the objectification of women, consent and rape, deception and self-deception, social isolation, and whether we should campaign against sex robots, etc. In order to prevent the ethical risks, this essay argues that the positive sexuality, positive psychology and positive technology could serve as a basis for future research. At the same time, we should build sex robots into artificial moral agents, delineate the bottom line of development and application, improve the ethical norms, and establish a comprehensive risk prevention system.Issue:Volume 44, lssue 4, April 2022Page: 70-79

The Ethical Washing in AI and Its Governance Abstract: The widespread existence of the ethical washing in AI has attracted the attention of the academy and the public. Conceptually, ethical washing as an action is characterized by two elements: hypocrisy in motivation and falsity in outcome. In terms of its causes, the formation of ethical washing is determined by a combination of motivational factors (the pursuit of interests of producers and the safety-rights needs of consumers and managers) and external factors (the effectiveness of AI ethics, the impact of AI on ethics, information gap and difficulties of governance). Ethical washing has caused negative ethical effects on both the practical and psychological levels. In this regard, its governance should be carried out from both internal (moral psychology) and external (realistic system). Key Words: AI ethics; Ethical washing; Ethical governanceIssue:Volume 47, lssue 1, January 2025Page: 9-17
