A Diverse Perspective on Flexible and Printable Systems: Ethical and Philosophical dimension of Emerging Technologies
The convergence of flexible and printable electronics and sensors, materials science, and wireless communication is driving the dematerialization of body-centric devices.
These technologies seamlessly integrate with our bodies, with flexible electronics transparently adhering to our skin, wrapping around organs, and becoming part of implantable devices. As a result, our daily lives are increasingly intertwined with these innovations, blurring the boundaries between the physical, biological world, that is analog by definition, and the digital realm.
The diversity panel aims at delving into the transformative nature of these technologies, where body sensors evolve beyond data collectors feeding AI algorithms, into extensions of ourselves, serving as conduits between our physical existence and the digital dimension.
We would like to invite distinguished speakers from various backgrounds, including Philosophers of information, Technology Ethicists, and AI Ethics Researcher to provide the FLEPS audience with a diverse perspective on the ethical and philosophical dimensions of technological innovations.
The goal is to stimulate a multidisciplinary discussion on the intricate interplay between technology, ethics, and the evolving human experience and possible routes toward a human-sustainable innovation where technology and ethics can harmoniously coexist preserving our core values.
