Synopsis

The relentless march of technology has given rise to a host of ethical dilemmas, challenging established notions of privacy, human rights, and societal obligations. The increasing ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI) has heightened concerns regarding its ethical use, data protection, and the deepening digital divide. The enactment of the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act and the OECD's AI recommendations underscores the critical need to address these complex issues, highlighting the urgency of understanding the ethical implications of digital technologies. Balancing Human Rights, Social Responsibility, and Digital Ethics offers a compelling solution to these issues by exploring the moral implications of AI, data privacy, and digital access. This book provides a holistic framework for addressing the ethical complexities of the digital era. Through practical insights on the alignment of technological advancements with human rights and social responsibility, it guides academics, policymakers, and technology professionals seeking to navigate the ethical implications of digital technologies.
