Meetings

Mar 01:

• Early discussions on how we would define justice:
  • what are the components of justice?
  • should justice involve preventative measure or should it be strictly reactive?

• How would evidence be collected and logged?

• Discussions on what "punishment" means when referring to computers:
  • What can we do to punish or penalize computers?
  • Does it make sense to punish computers?

• Discussions on how human penal systems work:
  • do we want computer justice to be used to dissuade deviant behaviour or should it be used to punish those who have committed "bad" acts?
  • should we implement a system that catches/punishes all bad acts or just punish reported acts?
  • how will we classify deviant behaviour?
    • by the act itself
    • by the results of the act
