For example there are numerous application in engineering and medicine of laser.

computational models of invisible processes in physical systems (e.g., [8]). As argued by Gupta and colleagues [9], a more complete engineering education alsodemands a deeper focus on the “macroethics” of engineering, including the social, ethical, andpolitical impacts of engineers’ scientific and technological pursuits. However, children and manyadults rarely conceptualize their interactions with machines in ways that are consistent with thecomplex and dynamic nature of machine learning systems [4], [5]. While mechanistic reasoningis often used to account for thinking about the behavior within systems, we also apply amechanistic lens to think about ethical dimensions of the sociopolitical contexts in whichmachine learning systems operate.
