👉 Outright engineering, or "ought engineering," is a design philosophy that emphasizes the ethical and moral implications of engineering decisions. It goes beyond merely ensuring technical feasibility and safety, advocating for engineers to consider the broader social, environmental, and economic impacts of their work. This approach encourages engineers to proactively address potential negative consequences, promote sustainability, and ensure that their solutions contribute positively to society. By integrating ethical considerations into the engineering process, outright engineering aims to foster responsible innovation that aligns with societal values and long-term well-being.
