An Ethical eValuation Agent (EeVA): Results of a Proof-of-Concept Test on a Prototype Agentic-like Workflow to Assist Ethical Deliberations

Announce Type: new Abstract: Ethical deliberation is often misunderstood as a search for single right or wrong answers, creating difficulties for non-ethically trained personnel who must address ethically laden challenges. We developed EeVA, an agentic-like LLM-based workflow designed to support comparative ethical reflection rather than deliver definitive ethical answers. EeVA was programmed in n8n using three interconnected workflows: starter, worker, and emitter.

Pushing the Limits: A Framework to Reform Institutional Ethics Review of Environmentally-Impactful Computing Research

new Abstract: Computationally-intensive research (CIR) takes place on a wide variety of topics including AI. Its environmental impact is potentially significant yet it does not always fall clearly within the scope of organisational ethics review policy on its own merits. Many academic institutions have ethics oversight bodies (e.g. Research Ethics Committees or Institutional Review Boards) that occupy a potentially powerful position to encourage recognition of these issues and seek reflexive...

Between a Rock and a Hard Place: The Tension Between Ethical Reasoning and Safety Alignment in LLMs

arXiv:2509.05367v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Model safety alignment predominantly operates on a binary assumption that requests are either safe or unsafe. This classification proves insufficient when models encounter ethical dilemmas, where the capacity to reason through moral trade-offs creates a distinct attack surface. We formalize this vulnerability through TRIAL, a multi-turn red-teaming methodology that embeds harmful requests within ethical framings.

How much should you pay for an ethically made T-shirt?

A higher price does not necessarily mean better fabric, fairer pay for workers or greater sustainability. To guarantee you’re buying ethically, experts say, you need to dig a little deeperDoes paying more for a T-shirt mean that it’s more likely to be ethically made?In short (sleeves): no. People who spend their time investigating fashion companies’ supply chains and employment practices seem united in the conclusion that money cannot necessarily buy us a clear conscience.

Ethical Fairness in Ubiquitous Health Sensing without Known Attributes

arXiv:2603.13373v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In ubiquitous and mobile health systems, computational models infer human states from wearable, behavioral, and physiological sensing data. In these settings, high accuracy alone is insufficient; models must act ethically and equitably across diverse people, contexts, and devices.

Ethics Statements in Autonomous Penetration-Testing Agent Research

arXiv:2506.08693v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have rapidly evolved over the past few years and are currently evaluated for their efficacy within the domain of offensive cyber-security. While initial forays showcase the potential of LLMs to enhance security research, they also raise critical ethical concerns regarding the dual-use of offensive security tooling. This paper analyzes a set of papers that leverage LLMs for offensive security, focusing on how...

To Nuke or Not to Nuke: LLMs' (Missing) Ethical Reasoning and Actions in a High-Stakes Decision-Making Simulation

Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed as long-horizon agents with decision-making capacities. While LLMs can show ethical competence on dilemmas such as trolley problems, this competence may not translate to complex, agentic scenarios. We study this gap in Civilization V, a multiplayer game with a complex decision-making landscape including economy, diplomacy, technology, and military strategy.

Risk Assessment of Autonomous Driving: Integrating Technical Failures, Ethical Dilemmas, and Policy Frameworks

arXiv:2606.06396v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous driving technology has the potential to reduce the large number of road traffic accidents caused by human error each year, but it also brings new types of risks that need to be evaluated from the aspects of technology, ethics and regulations. Based on public crash data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), disengagement reports from the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), the MIT Moral Machines...
