Cognitive Revolution
According to recent developments in neuroscience, neuron activity may be used to map mental conceptions such as compassion, hypocrisy, and love, allowing scientists to see which portions of the brain are being used and, thus, what thoughts are being expressed. Emotion, purpose, and familiarity with what is being watched or uttered may be deciphered using new technologies. Even though it has not been experimentally demonstrated to be sound or foolproof, this technology seems to be utilized as a lie detector in criminal investigations. This has led to several ethical questions: should we be compelled to participate in this technological process, particularly in criminal investigations, and if so, would it be seen as self-incrimination? As the video said, acquiring this functional MRIs in criminal investigations is now prohibited, but we should still be able to keep our thoughts and feelings private.
Because I feel that my views belong to me alone and no one should be allowed to impose them on me, this bothers and concerns me on an ethical and moral level. To condemn someone, you need a sufficient quantity of verifiable evidence, mainly if there are no witnesses. This is why it's called "police work." Why not? The Indian lady is a perfect example. When it comes to reading intent and recognition, for example, this technology is capable (CBS, 2009). It is difficult for me to imagine that these sophisticated structures of human thinking or cognitive processes can be correctly interpreted in a few minutes or even against a visual representation. Her husband's treatment of her might have prompted her to consider divorce, as some of us have done, and it's a logical thinking process if she's been subjected to such treatment. She might also get a good result because she has a vivid image of what he would have looked like when he died in her head. So, my question is: Can the technology use the context it has gathered to help it better process and analyze the data it has collected? If you want to do something, it does not imply you did so. I had every intention of finishing unpacking my new house's remaining boxes over the weekend while I was off, but procrastination got the better of me.
As a result of the necessity for survival and the establishment of social standards of etiquette, ethics and moral law was born. Despite the potential benefits of research, mainly when applied to biology and subsequently to the establishment of society regulations, the ethical ...
