Meet The Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies (Video)

Posted by Roblimo on from the debate-is-not-the-same-as-arguing dept.

Discussions about ethics and technology are perennial Slashdot staples. But if you want to frequent a site that is about ethics and technology and almost nothing else, with a strong science fiction bent to it, you might want to check out the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies (IEET.org) website. Here to introduce us to IEET and tell us what it's about, we have IEET Managing Director Hank Pellissier in a remote video interview we made through Skype.

    Actually solving any problems will be left as an exercise to the readers.

    Having suffered through all 12 minutes and 45 seconds of this rambling and pointless Skype video call, I suspect that actually solving any problems is like expecting a result from soft-willy masturbation by a eunuch.
    Dear new owners of slashdot, please relegate stuff like this to somewhere else. It's not even close to being "news for nerds".
