Machine Induction and Moral Responsibility:A Revisionist Response
The manipulation argument is an argument against compatibilism,which claims that if we have no re-sponsibility under manipulation,and there is no responsibility-relevant difference between manipulation and the causal determination,then we have no responsibility under the causal determination.Among compatibilism,there is a faction of"the another-agent views"that argues that there is a responsibility-relevant difference between manipulation and the causal determination.However,this view faces the challenge of"machine induction".The existing two response strategies either cannot account for why this manipulation scenario does not impair moral re-sponsibility,or cannot explain some common counterexamples and appear incredible.Moreover,these theories based on a Backward-Looking approach also have difficulty in resolving the conflict between moral responsibility and the causal determination.In contrast,we propose a revisionist theory based on a Forward-Looking approach,which can overcome the above conflict and rebut machine induction to support"the another-agent views".
