Concerning a self-sacrifice trolley dilemma, participants displayed a specific age-dependent pattern, in which both younger (18 – 44 years) and older (65+ years) participants rated their acceptance for egoistic algorithms higher and for altruistic algorithms lower when compared to middle-aged participants (45 – 64 years).encrash-control-algorithmstrolley dilemmaautomated drivingself-sacrificealtruismText/Conference Paper10.1145/3404983.3409992
