Ethical Issues Facing Human-Machine Interfaces

Suzanne Rivera, professor of bioethics at Case Western Reserve University, outlines how to account for the ethical, legal, and social implications of neural-digital technology during development. This includes examining if a technology is accessible to all income levels and how to prevent anyone from using it for disreputable purposes. Her framework helps ensure advances in the field cater to a diverse range of people.
