Keywords:AI ethics, virtue ethics, care robots, technomoral virtues

This paper aims to introduce the basic ideas of “virtue ethics” and explore how they might contribute to AI ethics. It presents philosopher Shannon Vallor’s virtue-ethical study into the ethical implications of care robots as a case study and holds that the virtue ethics perspective can contribute to AI ethics in two respects: (1) it can identify ethical problems related to the development and implementation of AI systems that are easily overlooked from other ethical standpoints; (2) it can provide a principled guide to the development and implementation of AI systems. It concludes by considering this perspective’s implications for future investigations into the ideal form of co-existence between humans and AI.
