· Physical and mental health

The development of AI should help protect and promote children's physical and mental health. For instance, AI could help to enhance the ability to diagnose and treat childhood diseases, help to tackle children's nutrition and health issues caused by poverty, hunger, environmental pollution, and other problems, and help to protect children's normal cognition, character, ability, health habits, and behaviors.

3. Justice

[QUESTIONS] How do we ensure that the benefits of AI are available to everyone? Must we fight against the concentration of power and wealth in the hands of a small number of AI companies? What types of discrimination could AI create or exacerbate? Should the development of AI be neutral or should it seek to reduce social and economic inequalities? What types of legal decisions can we delegate to AI? [PRINCIPLES] ​The development of AI should promote justice and seek to eliminate all types of discrimination, notably those linked to gender, age, mental physical abilities, sexual orientation, ethnic social origins and religious beliefs.

4 SOLIDARITY PRINCIPLE

The development of AIS must be compatible with maintaining the bonds of solidarity among people and generations. 1) AIS must not threaten the preservation of fulfilling moral and emotional human relationships, and should be developed with the goal of fostering these relationships and reducing people’s vulnerability and isolation. 2) AIS must be developed with the goal of collaborating with humans on complex tasks and should foster collaborative work between humans. 3) AIS should not be implemented to replace people in duties that require quality human relationships, but should be developed to facilitate these relationships. 4) Health care systems that use AIS must take into consideration the importance of a patient’s relationships with family and health care staff. 5) AIS development should not encourage cruel behavior toward robots designed to resemble human beings or non human animals in appearance or behavior. 6) AIS should help improve risk management and foster conditions for a society with a more equitable and mutual distribution of individual and collective risks.
