17、 lessons,highlighting the dangers of failing to follow the social codes that let humanbeings coexist in harmony.Such moral lessons may not mean much to a robot,but a team of researchers atGeorgia Institute of Technology believes it has found a way to use the fairy tales as moral lessons that AI(arti
