AI总结：

本文提出EHAZOP方法，将安全工程的结构化流程用于辅助机器人伦理危害分析，并通过概念验证研究证明其能有效识别多样化伦理危害。

摘要：

在家庭环境中使用辅助机器人可能引发重大伦理关切，从个体伦理伤害的风险到更广泛的社会伦理影响，包括文化扁平化和对人类尊严的损害。因此，必须确保这些机器人的技术发展以稳健且具有包容性的伦理关切缓解技术为依据。本文提出了EHAZOP，一种对辅助机器人进行伦理危害分析的方法。EHAZOP借鉴了源自安全工程领域的协作性、创造性和结构化流程，利用这些流程识别与特定辅助机器人运行相关的伦理关切。我们展示了EHAZOP概念验证研究的结果，证明了该流程在识别这些系统中多样化伦理危害方面的潜力。

英文摘要：

The use of assistive robots in domestic environments can raise significant ethical concerns, from the risk of individual ethical harm to wider societal ethical impacts including culture flattening and compromise of human dignity. It is therefore essential to ensure that technological development of these robots is informed by robust and inclusive techniques for mitigating ethical concerns. This paper presents EHAZOP, a method for conducting an ethical hazard analysis on an assistive robot. EHAZOP draws upon collaborative, creative and structured processes originating within safety engineering, using these to identify ethical concerns associated with the operation of a given assistive robot. We present the results of a proof of concept study of EHAZOP, demonstrating the potential for this process to identify diverse ethical hazards in these systems.
