This lag has been particularly acute in the case of artificial intelligence, whose accelerated deployment in a wide range of domains has triggered unprecedented attention on the risks and consequences for society at large, leading to a myriad of ethics regulations, which are difficult to coordinate and integrate due to their late appearance. The very nature of social robots forces their deployment to occur at a much slower pace, providing an opportunity for a profound reflection on ethics, which is already happening in multidisciplinary teams. This article provides a personal view of the ethics landscape, centered on the particularities of social robotics, with the main issues being ordered along two axes (individual and societal) and grouped into eight categories (human dignity, human autonomy, robot transparency, emotional bonding, privacy and safety, justice, freedom, and responsibility). This structure stems from the experience of developing and teaching a university course on ethics in social robotics, whose pedagogical materials are freely available.This work was partly supported by the European Research Council through the project CLOTHILDE (Cloth Manipulation Learning from Demonstrations; advanced grant agreement 741930) and by the European Union's Horizon Europe program through the project SoftEnable (HORIZON-CL4-2021-DIGITAL-EMERGING-01-101070600).Peer Reviewed20242024-07-1020252025-07-25journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2117/439473https://dx.doi.org/10.1146/annurev-control-062023-082238reponame:UPCommons.
