Ethical code
Ethical codes indicate responsibilities to which individuals or organisations hold themselves to account. Compliance with the codes is usually motivated by social pressure and rewards; formal sanctions are rarer. In the field of emerging technologies, a key concern is to promote desirable developments and/or minimise undesirable developments.
