People of the internet, now that you've watched such a great and well-made video, I'm here to tell you what you should do if the trolley problemm scenario happens in real life! It's very simple: You need to pull the lever and divert tracks when the trolley is on top of the thing that diverts tracks (Dunno the name). If done correctly, the front of the trolley will go in one direction, and the back in the other direction, effectively causing the trolley to stop. (You risk making the trolley fall out of the rails and harm the passengers. Doing a tokyo drift and getting the max amount of kills may also happen). This practice is done in real life when trian people need to stop a train because reasons

Alternatively, it also suggests ethics are so grey in certain situations that it doesn't matter that much. People just feel more comfortable knowing a human was at fault instead of a machine. It doesn't make it morally better. If an AI is driving a car and has literally no other option but to fatally injure a granny or the passenger(s), how would a human in the same situation be better ethically? The outcomes will be bad regardless and neither is ethically better from the other. I think people over-philosophize ethics and AI. The real problem is how to treat this legally.

Ironically, you think you’ve understood it so much that you don’t. It was simply a thought-problem that shows that ethics aren’t objective-or at least, we as a society don’t have enough agreement on what is “good” or “bad” to quantify and objectify them. AI applications are an extension of that, sure, but the bigger problems with it come elsewhere in our general legal and judicial systems, as well as in society making judgements as a whole, both on our contemporaries, as well as on those from the past.

Is has also been used to show irrationality in our ethical decision making. A study shows that there were a lot of people who would pull the lever. However, when an alternative was presented, instead of having a lever you could push a Fatman off a bridge that would stop the train, many people said they wouldn't. Additionally, those who answered they would to both were found to take more time answering the Fatman question, indicating that some people judge ethics based of immediate emotional responses (the group who pulled the lever but didn't push the fat man) and some people judge ethics based of logical reasoning (the people who judged the two situations to be equivalent and answered the same in both)

At best, it shows the difficulty of defining objective standards of ethics, and illustrates the weaknesses of our attempts thus far.

The problem with the problem is that it’s often problematized. But the problem with the problem that’s problematized is that it’s problematic. And the problem with the problematic problem is that it leads to more problems. So, the problem with the problem that’s problematic and leads to more problems is that it perpetuates a cycle of problematicity. Yet, the problem with this cycle of problematicity is that it’s difficult to pinpoint a solution. Consequently, the problem with attempting to solve the problem with the problem is that it introduces even more complexity. Thus, the problem with the attempt to solve the problem with the problem that’s problematic and leads to more problems is that it’s an endless loop of problem-solving that never quite reaches a definitive resolution. And therein lies the problem with the problem with the problem with the problem about the problem that is all about the trolley problem.

This whole exercise is about the value of human life. We like to say we're all equal but obviously some individuals are valued higher by society than others. It's uncomfortable to think about but that's the dilemma.

“Never to have been born is best. Everyone knows that, and a close second, once you have appeared in this life, is a quick return, as soon as you can, to where you came from. In our light-headed youth we carry blithe ideas, not knowing what blows await, what hardships are bearing down, closer and closer. Murder, hatred, strife, resentment, and envy are lurking, and then, behind them, bitter old age, powerless, friendless, with evils our only neighbors.” ― Sophocles

He also wouldn't have known love or joy to be near them if they had never been born. Negative emotion does not erase positive emotion; it's not some existential calculus where you determine the value of living by the net total amount of suffering compared to non-suffering. Joy is derived from the awareness of its possibility just as much as the spontaneity of it. To never be born is to not understand this at all, is to not have known the lows or highs or the middles in between. You can say it us better to not be born at all, but I disagree. It is better to live and understand the full spectrum of living, as a means to experience and sensualize. It is better to know hate and love in conjunction than to know neither.

I don't imagine a scenario wherein you can experience only positive emotion constantly and have any context for why that's a good thing. What you're saying is devoid of any meaning, seeing as how you can't choose to revert being born, or to stop living within a physical body without doing harm to that body. Perhaps carrying negative responses to the environment through your death allows those responses to perpetuate themselves within your consciousness even after death. The only real solution, then, is to accept the horrors of life, and to choose to respond to them with hope and love. Even if it seems futile. No one ever claims that it's easy or simple. That doesn't mean bleak pessimism is the true realistic viewpoint to filter thought through.

I believe ive found the way to be infinitely happy. I know it sounds obvious but, enjoy the simplicity of life and a chosen simple thing. This might be hard but find happiness in something like washing the dishes, walking, cleaning or something you can do at anytime basically like drawing, reading, writing, meditation, etc. If you put happiness in something you can actually have whenever you want or something that may be boring, but you still have to do it everyday, your happiness is therefore alqays available. If you put the attainment of happiness in big and complex things like becoming a pilot or graduating college, your restricting your happiness bejind years of work and learning. It becomes circumstantial, and inturn becomes limited. Then when you finally get that thing your happy and satisfied, yet unhappy cus you relied on acheiving that thing in order to produce your joy.

I thought the dilemma in the trolley problem was that the person was a loved one and the five were strangers. Others have mentioned the five-kidneyed person. In the case of the judge, was the person he found guilty innocent of the crime but guilty of other crimes he was found not guilty of or did the judge know the person was going to kill the people he thought he was saving? My problem with these problems is they're never specific enough🤨

I hate this problem. 😐 Thank you.❤

I love multi track drift

Well harm is inevitable in this moment in both case scenarios , it is more of what is the least damage could be done rather than is committing evil in the sake of good evil or not , if you had to act the most coherent way of acting is limiting the loss not sit in fear of doing evil even though it would be Less of loss.

Simple answer for me. What are the consequences to me if each choice? I take the one with the least consequences. If no or equal, just let it run. I didn't set up the problem, so not my problem. I will sleep just fine either way. Two tours in V-N and Laos and no sleep lost over the years.

The classic trolly problem, what would you choose?

Fax

As per the video thumbnail, I am most definitely saving my loved one. No questions about that.

I don't know why trolley is involved here at all if the essence of the problem is: "You must choose how many people you kill". Don't let anyone put you in such situation. It's not a casual shopping dilemma. You don't have to choose who lives and who dies. The only true lesson this problem can teach you is that saving can be just as bad as killing.

Can you look at the content of CS Joseph, it would be nice to know your thoughts about psychology

Honestly I won't care if I get to save my loved ones(or i'll pretend to), If I empathize with every poor man I see on road, it would cost me my happiness, and slowly eat away my life. If resources are scarce we should preserve it for our lives. At the end the answer to the question acc to me would be who makes a more significant impact on our lives. A bit cold reasoning but why lie to yourself.

The trolley problem is there is only one trolley. Those people are tied to the tracks for a reason……

Its actually really simple

maybe that one dude knows he is safe because trolleys don't use that track, so it is okay to be on it; but the other 5 people are knowingly taking a risk to be on any tracks at all ....like say there are 5 kids playing in the street with one kid up in the yard telling the others to get out of the street, when you come driving along and then swerve up into the yard to avoid the kids in the street; if that kid in the yard lives, those other kids will never listen to his good advice and warnings .... its like the saying "stop making stupid people famous" and don't save large groups of them by killing the one smart guy that did nothing wrong

My problem is if I intervene then I could be liable cause now it's my fault I killed that one person. If I do nothing, I can't be blamed cause it's not my fault the brakes failed. I would view it the same with autonomous cars: I don't want a car that if it has to decide between running over a pedestrian or a group of pedestrians, and going into oncoming traffic hitting a truck and killing me that's riding the car, I wouldn't want the car to decide to kill me.

Anyone who would flip the switch to "save" the three is immoral. Remember that we are all beholden to fate, which prevents us from doing anything from unaliving a murderer to save three or quitting our jobs and saving lives in the poorest countries of Africa. We choose to NOT save lives because of fate, which prevents seeing a positive action (saving three) as negating a negative action (unaliving one). Those who choose to take out the one is ultimately acting as God in one instance and then ignoring all the positives they can do every other day of their lives. This is not even a dilemma if you look at how you ignore saving lives. Really? Be a hero/ unaliver just because a question pops up so cleanly and clearly in front of you?

You have full agency and knowledge in the trolley problem, and -1 is greater than -5. That's it.

Its stupid and it's trying to force someone to take responsibility for a problem that isn't their responsibility.

Better question. Why did he have 5 kidneys?

People need to broaden their narrow perspectives. Everything I heard is focused in limiting casualties/moral blame while they could easily avoid casualties (other than yourself potentially, if you're alone in the trolley) altogether. Let's assume the people are tied to the rails for some reason. Then that still leaves us with a couple of options: - Using the engine itself to slow the train. - Emergency Brakes: Applying hand brakes on every car. - As a last resort, using designated derailment points or techniques to minimize damage.

Get rid of trolleys. Problem solved.

Misinterpreted Consequentialism. It is easier summed up by "The ends justify the means." The video early on painted it as lofty and moral, which is largely not the case. If the train "needed" to be on time, a consequentialist would have no problem running over 5 people, even if the other track had ZERO people. Consequentialism is a rationalization process that is framework for an ideology. EG Activists use consequentialism to justify being mean to people they disagree with, because their ultimate goal is JUST, pursuing it by any means is automatically granted as okay. Additionally, The Trolley Problem may be a good beginner discussion but it's real use is studying how it actually plays out, but it's not really that interesting on it's own. Most people would obviously pick the 1 dead instead of 5. In practice, some people won't flip the switch from 5......but for fear of screwing something up. That's not consequentialism, that's not the type of consequence that the term refers to, that's general responsibility or cost issue that we deal with all the time, and varying psychology will yield different choices for varying reasons. As I said, most people would pick 1, so even with not confronted with a, varying psychology will yield ifferent choices. Maybe someone is being an edgelord, or rebelling against the percieved morality judgement, etc. We vary widely in how we interpret and process things, and that manifests in realistic experiments as well as hypothetical "what if" discussions.
