The AlphaGo program.s victory is an example of how smart computers have become.

But can artificial intelligence (AI) machines act ethically, meaning can they be honest and fair?

One example of AI is driverless cars. They are already on California roads, so it is not too soon to ask whether we can program a machine to act ethically. As driverless cars improve, they will save lives. They

will make fewer mistakes than human drivers do. Sometimes, however, they will face a choice between

lives. Should the cars be programmed to avoid hitting a child running across the road, even if that will put

their passengers at risk? What about making a sudden turn to avoid a dog? What if the only risk is

damage to the car itself, not to the passengers?

Perhaps there will be lessons to learn from driverless cars, but they are not super-intelligent beings.

Teaching ethics to a machine even more intelligent than we are will be the bigger challenge.

About the same time as AlphaGo.s triumph, Microsoft.s .chatbot’took a bad turn. The software,

named Taylor, was designed to answer messages from people aged 18-24. Taylor was supposed to be

able to learn from the messages she received. She was designed to slowly improve her ability to handle

conversations, but some people were teaching Taylor racist ideas. When she started saying nice things

about Hitler, Microsoft turned her off and deleted her ugliest messages.

AlphaGo.s victory and Taylor.s defeat happened at about the same time. This should be a warning

to us. It is one thing to use AI within a game with clear rules and clear goals. It is something very

different use AI in the real world. The unpredictability of the real world may bring to the surface a

troubling software problem.

Eric Schmidt is one of the bosses of Google, which owns AlphaGo. He thinks AI will be positive for

humans. He said people will be the winner, whatever the outcome. Advances in AI will make human

beings smarter, more able and "just better human beings.”

Roughly the size of a soda can, sitting on a bookshelf, a relatively harmless gadget may be turning friends away from your home. The elephant in your living room is your Internet-connected security camera, a device people are increasingly using for peace of mind in their homes, But few stop to think about the effect these devices may have on house guests. Should you tell your friends, for instance, that they.re being recorderd while you all watch the big game together?

"It.s certainly new territory, especially as home security cameras become easier to Install," says Lizzie Post, president of the Emily Post Institute, America.s foremost manners advisors. "I think it will be very interesting to see what etiquette(礼仪) emerges in terms of whether you tell people you have a camera or not, and whether guests have a right to ask that it be turned off, if it.s not a security issue. "

Post wants to make clear that she.s not talking about legal rights, but rather personal preferences. She also wants to explain that there are no right or wrong answers regarding manners on this front yet, because the technology is just now becoming mainstream. Besides, the Emily Post Institute doesn.t dictate manners.

When it comes to security cameras, Post says it.s a host.s responsibility to make sure guests feel comfortable within their home. "I.m always a fan of being open and honest." For instance, if the host casually acknowledges that there is a camera in the room by telling a story about it, that may be enough to provide an opening for a guest to say if they are uncomfortable.

However, if a contractor is working in your home, you don’t need to tell them that there are cameras watching. Then again, the air of accountability that the camera generates can also work in contractors. favor. "If anything does go wrong while they.re in the house, they don.t want to be blamed for it," she says. "In fact, the camera could be the thing that proves that they didn.t steal the $ 20, or knock the vase off the table."

PepsiCo is to spend billions of dollars to develop drinks and snacks and reformulate existing ones with lower sugar, salt and fat, as consumers demand healthier options and regulatory pressure intensifies amid an obeisity epidemic(流行病).

The maker of Mountain Dew and Gatorade has been one of the earlier movers in the industry to offer products with reduced levels of unhealthy ingredients-PepsiCo claims a packet of its chips now contains less salt than a slice of white bread. However, its new 10-year plan makes clear it believes it still has a long way to go.

Shifting eating habits, including a sharp drop in consumption of sparkling drinks, have forced radical

change on the industry. But those shifts have yet to be reflected in record obesity levels, which stand at 36.5% overall in the US.

Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo chairman, said the plan to make its products healthier was important for the company’s growth. But on the subject of obesity, she pointed out that consumers. lifestyles have changed significantly, with many people being more sedentary(久坐不动的) not least because more time is spent in front of computers. She said PepsiCo.s contribution was to produce healthier snacks that still tasted good.

“Society has to change its habits,” she added. “We can.t do much to alter sedentary lifestyles, but can we provide comsumers with great-tasting products, low in salt, sugar and fat. In the past we had to have a taste trade-off. But we’re breaking that trade-off.”

PepsiCo.s plan for its foods and drinks is based on guidelines from the World Health Organisation, which last week backed using taxes on sparkling drinks to reduce sugar comsumption. Intiatives also include efforts to reduce its environmental impact, water comsumption and materials used in packaging by 2025.

PepsiCo did not say exactly how much it planned to invest to reach its goals. However, Dr Mehmood Khan, chief scientific officer, said the company had doubled research and development spending in the past five years and was “committed to sustaining investment", adding that companies cannot cost-cut their way to increasing sales. PepsiCo’s research and development budget in 2015 was $754 million.
