Apply ethical frameworks to real dilemmas in business, technology, and public policy, where stakeholders have competing interests.

Evaluate the quality of arguments in real news, advertising, and social media, and construct well-evidenced counter-arguments.

Make decisions under incomplete information, weighing expected value against risk tolerance.
