A model for prohibition and obligation dilemmas generation in virtual environments

TL;DR

This paper introduces a system that dynamically generates ethical dilemmas in virtual environments using Knowledge Models, aiming to train individuals to handle critical, no-good-solution situations.

Contribution

It proposes a novel Scenario Orchestration System that creates dilemma scenarios on-the-fly without predefined scripting, advancing virtual training methods.

Findings

Developed a proof of concept for dilemma generation

Demonstrated dynamic scenario creation in virtual environments

Validated the approach through initial experiments

Abstract

Under the project Maccoy Critical, we would like to train individuals, in virtual environments, to handle critical situations such as dilemmas. These latter refer to situations where there is no ``good'' solution. In other words, situations that lead to negative consequences whichever choice is made. Our objective is to use Knowledge Models to extract necessary properties for dilemmas to emerge. To do so, our approach consists in developing a Scenario Orchestration System that generates dilemma situations dynamically without having to write them beforehand. In this paper we present this approach and expose a proof of concept of the generation process.
