SUMMARY:Science\, Technology\, & Ethics in the Real World
DESCRIPTION:MIT is a literally world-changing institution\, equipping its students\, faculty\, and alumni to innovate in science and technology for a better future.  But what sort of future should we be building? \nIn this mini-course\, participants explore case studies for thinking about what sorts of technologies we should be building\, asking questions of meaning\, purpose\, and ultimate goals. In addition to learning about both religious and secular ethical frameworks\, participants discuss real-world case studies of ethical dilemmas faced by the MIT community. New for 2025\, participants will learn about and discuss the complex economic incentives that make ethical choices in industry so difficult\, addressing what happens when your hopes and dreams collide with the realities of the job market. \nPast topics have included: \n\nWhat MIT didn’t teach you: an alumni panel exploring everyday ethics and human flourishing in technological industry (with Ted Leung\, Ernie Prabhakar\, Angie Du\, Marcus Gibson)\nClimate science (with Dorothy Boorse\, Professor of Biology at Gordon College)\nBioethics (with Praveen Sethupathy\, Professor of Physiological Genomics at Cornell University)\nArtificial Intelligence (with Ehi Nosakhare (MIT PhD ‘18)\, Senior Data and Applied Science Manager at Microsoft)
