This lecture introduces three fundamental ethical theories: Utilitarianism (greatest good for greatest number, outcome-based), Deontology (rule-based ethics following universal moral laws regardless of outcomes), and Virtue Ethics (character-based morality developed through practice and experience). The instructor uses practical examples including a medicine distribution scenario and the Batman vs. Joker dilemma to illustrate how each theory leads to different ethical decisions.
