  1. Quantum Technologies: a Hermeneutic Technology Assessment Approach.Luca M. Possati - 2024 - NanoEthics 18 (1):1-15.
    This paper develops a hermeneutic technology assessment of quantum technologies. It offers a “vision assessment” of quantum technologies that can eventually lead to socio-ethical analysis. Section 2 describes this methodological approach and in particular the concept of the hermeneutic circle applied to technology. Section 3 gives a generic overview of quantum technologies and their impacts. Sections 4 and 5 apply the hermeneutic technology assessment approach to the study of quantum technologies. Section 5 proposes distinguishing three levels in the analysis of (...)

  • The Ethics of Technology: How Can Indigenous Thought Contribute?John Weckert & Rogelio Bayod - 2023 - NanoEthics 17 (1):1-13.
    The ethics of technology is not as effective as it should. Despite decades of ethical discussion, development and use of new technologies continues apace without much regard to those discussions. Economic and other forces are too powerful. More focus needs to be placed on the values that underpin social attitudes to technology. By seriously looking at Indigenous thought and comparing it with the typical Western way of seeing the world, we can gain a better understanding of our own views. The (...)

  • Talking About Responsible Quantum: “Awareness Is the Absolute Minimum that … We Need to Do”.Tara Roberson - 2023 - NanoEthics 17 (1):1-12.
    Hype over novel quantum technologies has prompted discussion on the likely societal impacts of the sector. Calls to ensure the responsible development of quantum technologies are complicated by a lack of concrete case studies or real-world examples of irresponsible quantum. At this stage, responsible quantum faces a situation reminiscent of the Collingridge dilemma. In this dilemma, the moment in which discussion on societal risks and benefits can be most impactful is also the time when the least information is available. The (...)
