About
Jason Millar is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of ethics, artificial intelligence, robotics, and healthcare technology. Best known for his foundational contributions to machine ethics, Millar has tackled one of the most pressing questions of our technological age: how should autonomous systems make ethical decisions? His highly cited 2016 paper on ethics evaluation tools for robots and self-driving cars (44 citations) established a practical framework for engineers and designers grappling with the moral dimensions of automated decision-making. Complementing this, his work on delegation, relinquishment, and responsibility explores the profound philosophical and practical challenges of entrusting critical decisions to expert robotic systems. Millar's research extends meaningfully into healthcare, where his 2022 scoping review on home health monitoring for older adults (38 citations) synthesized a broad evidence base to guide the deployment of monitoring technologies in aging populations. His ongoing exploration of human-robot interaction, including evolving models of trust and responsibility in collaborative robotic systems, reflects a career committed to ensuring that as robots become partners in human life, the ethical and social dimensions keep pace with technological advancement. Millar's interdisciplinary scholarship makes him an essential voice for students navigating the ethics of emerging technologies.
