A worksheet for students that presents a fictional 2062 newspaper article describing the functions of intelligent household robots and asks learners to evaluate them. The goal is to help students critically reflect on the use of such robots from an ethical perspective.
Learning outcomes
Understand how AI-powered robots may affect everyday life, identify benefits and risks of AI applications, critically evaluate AI-enabled functions, recognise privacy and surveillance risks, discuss ethical implications of AI, develop arguments about responsible AI use.
Suggested activity
Students read the fictional newspaper article set in 2062, identify the functions of the intelligent household robot, classify which functions they consider problematic, justify their opinions, and discuss privacy, surveillance, safety and responsible use of AI in small groups.
