Abstract

This paper describes progress towards realising the long-term research goal of supporting dialogue between humans and between humans and AI systems so as to enable transparent and rational joint reasoning, in particular about matters of ethical significance. Key to realising this goal is this paper's proposed exploration and analysis of natural language moral debates, via argument schemes and critical questions. We believe this to be an important first step in identifying schemes and scheme taxonomies, specialised for ethical reasoning, and that can support both the natural language processing needed to support human-AI dialogue, as well as for scaffolding human-human dialogue.
