Students' moral judgments of trolley problem decisions seemed to depend not only on the decision (cause some harm or don't), but also the decision-maker (human vs. AI), and the problem type (standard vs. footbridge).

I'm not sure why these eggs are here.
I know I didn't order them, but perhaps if I just took one, nobody would notice. #wildlife #badger #Perthshire #moraldilemma

If it is dark outside, does Heinz clean up after his dog after it does its business on the lawn of a political rival?

Question for anyone: would you feel able to correct a CIO if they suggested something that you feel wouldn't work?

Some background: I've been told face-to-face by the CIO that I should feel able to say to them that their ideas/demands won't work.

I'm comfortably 4 levels below them and my employer is a service provider to the CIO.

I categorically did not/do not feel anything like comfort when being asked to tell a CIO in front of their direct reports that what they were suggesting wouldn't work. Politically, I don't think that would work (side note:contract renewal discussions are ongoing).

Is this discomfort a me problem?
