since the subject of robots came up on monday in class, one person mentioned that robot is incapable of "feelings" or acting on emotions. I sort of disagree with that. Lets just pretend robots is a computer that function based on an "if or else" statement. Wouldn't that solve all problem relating to emotion. Robots can be injected with problems and likewise solution is already set up. If option 1 as a solution to problem A is not "ethical", they can proceed to option 2.
What I'm saying is, sure robot is not capable of making "ethical/emotional" decision on their own but they can always be programmed to do so...

hi! yes robots could be programmed to be ethical/emotional but just what type of ethics are we talkin about here? what if the programmer doesn't have the same ethics as you? who's to say what the norm is for robot feelings since most humans can't control their own or even act in an ethical manner? just sayin..
