Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies
The Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies (IEET) is a "technoprogressive think tank" that seeks to contribute to understanding of the likely impact of emerging technologies on individuals and societies by "promoting and publicizing the work of thinkers who examine the social implications of scientific and technological advance".〔〔Katarina Felsted, Scott D. Wright, ''Toward Post Ageing: Technology in an Ageing Society'' (2014), p. 109.〕〔Joseph R. Herkert, "Ethical Challenges of Emerging Technologies", in Gary E. Marchant, Braden R. Allenby, Joseph R. Herkert, eds., ''The Growing Gap Between Emerging Technologies and Legal-Ethical Oversight'' (2011), p. 38.〕 It was incorporated in the United States in 2004, as a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, by philosopher Nick Bostrom and bioethicist James Hughes.〔(About, Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies, (Retrieved Dec. 30, 2014). )〕〔Tamar Sharon, ''Human Nature in an Age of Biotechnology: The Case for Mediated Posthumanism'' (2013), p. 26.〕
The institute aims to influence the development of public policies that distribute the benefits and reduce the risks of technological change. It has been described as "()mong the more important groups" in the transhumanist movement,〔Robert Geraci, ''Apocalyptic AI: Visions of Heaven in Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, and Virtual Reality'' (2010), p. 85.〕 and as being among the transhumanist groups that "play a strong role in the academic arena".〔Max More, Natasha Vita-More, ''The Transhumanist Reader: Classical and Contemporary Essays on the Science, Technology, and Philosophy of the Human Future'' (2013), pt. II.〕
The IEET works with Humanity Plus (also founded and chaired by Bostrom and Hughes, and previously known as the World Transhumanist Association),〔 an international non-governmental organization with a similar mission but with an activist rather than academic approach.〔(Daniel Faggella, Ethics and Policy Concerns in the Transhuman Transition, Humanity+, (July 29, 2014). )〕 A number of technoprogressive thinkers are offered honorary positions as IEET Fellows. Individuals who have accepted such appointments with the IEET support the institute's mission, but they have expressed a wide range of views about emerging technologies and not all identify themselves as transhumanists. In early Oct 2012, Kris Notaro became the Managing Director of the IEET.
