-Enhancing Our Well-being in Harmony with Nature-<\/h5>\n
\n
The symposium aims to discuss the use of AI ethics standardization in the governance of social robots, specifically examining the challenges to regulating AI-enabled technologies due to the inability of legislative processes to keep up with the rapid legislative process. In addition to examining the regulation of social robots, we also explore regulatory frameworks that rely on non-binding, flexible AI ethics standards to ensure stakeholders can manage the risks of ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) from the perspective of ethical design.
