Centre For Technomoral Futures
About Centre For Technomoral Futures
As part of the Edinburgh Futures Institute (EFI) at The University of Edinburgh, The Centre for Technomoral Futures supports EFI's larger aim: to pursue and promote the participatory knowledge and critical understanding needed to support society's navigation of complex futures. Our shared goal is to help people create and shape more resilient, sustainable and equitable forms of life. Our current portfolio of activities, supported by an initial gift from the global investment firm Baillie Gifford, focuses upon the ethical implications of present and future advances in AI, machine learning and other data-driven technologies. We strive to embed technomoral wisdom in the design of possible futures. Technical and moral knowledge have long been treated as separate kinds of expertise, but this is a damaging and artificial split, one that our Centre works to mend. Technology's value lies solely in its power to transform our world in ways that enable better lives; it is therefore inseparable from knowledge of how to live well, which is the domain of ethics and morality. Morality is a body of social techniques for living good lives together, and it is therefore inseparable from the technical knowledge that we use to build human values into the world we share with others. To envision, design, build, and sustain environments where shared flourishing is possible, we must first reunite these two bodies of knowledge and skill, and the good ends they promote. The result of that synthesis is technomoral wisdom.
