- Good news everyone. We've solved trolley problems.
- Instead of trying to reason out how you should behave in the trolley, we have generated simulated societies that obey trolley-style ethical rules.
- At one extreme, all society members would run over the five people in the way of the trolley. At the other extreme, all would change course to only kill one. We can simulate arbitrary numbers of intermediate scenarios.
- The result is, and I can say this with five sigma confidence, that it doesn't make a dog's turd worth of difference. Therefore we conclude the trolley problem has no standing as an ethical matter.
