Responding to the (techno) Responsibility Gap(s)

This chapter seeks to provide a clear overview of different ways in which people have, thus far, responded to techno-responsibility gaps. It does so by dividing responses into the following categories: (1) Those who are skeptical that techno-responsibility gaps exist; (2) those who acknowledge that techno-responsibility gaps exist, but we need not be so concerned about them; and (3) those who acknowledge that techno-responsibility gaps exist, and we should be concerned about them. The latter category is further subdivided into optimists, who believe techno-responsibility gaps can indeed be filled by way of either a technical, human-centred, or hybrid approach; and pessimists who are skeptical that techno-responsibility gaps could be filled at all.
