Introduction. In this article I will explain two powerful moral theories: utilitarianism and virtue ethics, and consider the “experience machine” objection to utilitarianism and a possible response, as well as the “right action problem” objection and response to virtue ethics. In conclusion, I will argue that Virtue Ethics might be a better theory and demonstrate that this claim can be defensible.VE outlines UtilitarianismIn the 19th century, an English philosopher Jeremy Bentham founded a consequentialist moral theory called “Hedonic Act Utilitarianism”. He begins his book with the following statement: "Nature has placed humanity under the government of two sovereign masters, pain and pleasure." The theory is based on a concept of ancient hedonism whose main goal is to make the world as happy as possible by maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain, so the act will be considered moral if it results in the maximum amount of happiness and the minimum amount of pain. The amount of pleasure is measured in Hedon and the total hedonic value of an act is the difference between happiness and unhappiness for each person affected. .The Experience Machine Objection. In 1974, Robert Nozick created a thought experiment about the “Experience Machine” that is supposed to be a counterexample against utilitarianism. "Suppose there is an experience machine that gives you any experience you want. Superduper neuropsychologists could stimulate your brain so that you can think and feel that you are writing a great novel, or that you are making friends, or that you are reading a book Interesting. All the time you'll be floating in a tank, with electrodes attached to your brain. Should you plug into this machine your entire life, preprogramming your life experiences? card ......to experience happiness We can say that life is a necessary condition for happiness and therefore is intrinsically valuable. Likewise, love has no value in itself. We desire love because it generally promotes happiness. This example shows us that the response to the "Experience Machine" objection is not strong enough to defend the theory and therefore we should reject it.
