RE: Is 'Moral Enhancement Technology' a Solution to Change Behavior?
Great post with some really interesting ideas, coming from Glasgow where we have our share of antisocial behaviour I can see why people would be attracted to the idea of quick fix morality improvemenment, whether you were actually moral or not doesn't matter for some people who just want a quiet life, but what happens if we could operate and improve morality, who defines that morality?
Yeah, just like someone believing something doesn't make it true, if you could force someone to think something was true when it wasn't, that would be a bad as well. No more thinking for yourself, somebody else is robbing you of the ability to discern, and making you accept falsity as truth. We can be made to, and already are made to, accept immorality as morality.
And where is the redemption if you don't have the ability to choose for yourself.
