We propose to build directly upon our longstanding, prior r&d in AI/machine ethics in order to attempt to make real the blue-sky idea of AI that can thwart mass shootings, by bringing to bear its ethical reasoning.

In the last decade, formal logics have been used to model a wide range of ethical theories and principles with the goal of using these models within autonomous systems.

This paper introduces, philosophically and to a degree formally, the novel concept of learning $\textit{ex nihilo}$, intended (obviously) to be analogous to the concept of creation $\textit{ex nihilo}$.

We begin to address this by presenting an embryonic formalization of a key part of any virtue-ethics theory: namely, the learning of virtue by a focus on exemplars of moral virtue.

We briefly introduce herein a new form of distributed, multi-agent artificial intelligence, which we refer to as "tentacular."

Our paradigm for the use of artificial agents to teach requires among other things that they persist through time in their interaction with human students, in such a way that they "teleport" or "migrate" from an embodiment at one time t to a different embodiment at later time t'.

In the first project, we demonstrate that our system can be used to model a complex moral principle, the doctrine of double effect.

These \textit{cognitive and immersive systems} (CAISs) fall squarely into the intersection of AI with HCI/HRI: such systems interact with and assist the human agents that enter them, in no small part because such systems are infused with AI able to understand and reason about these humans and their knowledge, beliefs, goals, communications, plans, etc.

We present a new system S for handling uncertainty in a quantified modal logic (first-order modal logic).

We present formalizations of increasingly stronger versions of the principle, including what is known as the doctrine of triple effect.
