  1. Bottom up ethics
    1. New Manifesto/laws inspired by Asimov's Laws
  2. One of the focal points of this project is to update these laws and see how I can challenge and test these new laws against contemporary technologies. 
  3. Discussing/Chalenging the application fo reasoning to ethics
    1. Discuss other foundations for developing ethics
    2. Incorporate these rules in situations throughout the novel
  4. I want to contrast the humanist, anti-humanist and posthumanist views on machine ethics. This inspiration comes from Verbeek's humanist principle of contemporary technologies- technological tools as agents for human decision making. But the fiction short story I am writing is going to ultimately focus on the Post-humanist view on machine ethics- using MacCormack's "Posthuman Ethics" as a guideline for this bottom-up ethics.
    1. This is where vitalist materialism will come into play.
