This volume offers a multidisciplinary reflection on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and digitalization in technology, epistemology, ethics, and governance. It aims to encourage inclusive and responsible digital development capable of bridging global digital divides.
AI is playing an increasingly important role in our daily lives and in the development of world economies. In the face of the many potential benefits of AI, it is necessary to reflect on the potentially disruptive effects that the proliferation of new AI technologies may have on our societies. The volume begins with an analysis of some of the most important historical, epistemological, ethical, and phenomenological questions relevant to the concepts of digital development and digital innovation. It continues by reviewing and evaluating the merits and possibilities as well as the potential challenges associated to the widespread implementations of digital and artificial systems in ‘lived environments’ (in fields such software engineering, blockchain, data forecasting, and medicine). Finally, it looks -from the perspective of general policy making- at the impact of digital development in governance and politics by advocating human-centric values and emphasizing the need to design and adopt multipolar policies that prioritize equitable human flourishing and harmonious societal well-being.
Digital Development will appeal to scholars and graduate students in philosophy, computer science, politics, and sociology who are interested in artificial intelligence.
