Abstract
Machine Ethics is a newly emerging interdisciplinary field which is concerned with adding an ethical dimension to Artificial Intelligent (AI) agents. In this paper we address the problem of representing and acquiring rules of codes of ethics in the online customer service domain. The proposed solution approach relies on the non-monotonic features of Answer Set Programming (ASP) and applies ILP. The approach is illustrated by means of examples taken from the preliminary tests conducted with a couple of state-of-the-art ILP algorithms for learning ASP rules.
