About

Young Lim Choi is a leading voice in the emerging field of robot ethics, with a particular focus on the sociotechnical frameworks governing intelligent machines in South Korea. Her most influential work centers on the development and revision of the nation’s Robot Ethics Charter, a landmark policy document shaped by the Korea Robotics Society. In her 2019 paper, “Making of South Korean robot ethics charter: Revised proposition in 2018,” Choi provides a critical analysis of the design principles intended to control intelligent robots while maximizing human safety. This work, cited by policymakers and ethicists, outlines a comprehensive ethical framework applicable from the design stage through to deployment. Choi’s contribution is notable for bridging engineering pragmatism with moral philosophy, offering concrete guidelines for a society increasingly integrated with autonomous systems. Her research is essential for students and scholars interested in how nations craft regulatory responses to AI and robotics, positioning her as a key architect of ethical standards in one of the world’s most technologically advanced societies.
