Sven Nyholm is a Professor of the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence at LMU Munich and the Principal Investigator for AI Ethics at the Munich Center for Machine Learning. Much of his recent work has been about the impact of emerging technologies on our opportunities to live meaningful lives, have meaningful relationships, and do meaningful work. He is particularly interested in how life in the contemporary world – with technologies like robots and artificial intelligence – affects traditional ideas about ethics and our human self-understanding. Nyholm’s publications include Revisiting Kant’s Universal Law and Humanity Formulas (De Gruyter, 2015), Humans and Robots: Ethics, Agency, and Anthropomorphism (Rowman & Littlefield International, 2020) and This is Technology Ethics: An Introduction (Wiley-Blackwell, 2023).
