Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Human Rights: A Social - Philosophical Exploration of Ethical Dilemmas in a Technologically Evolving Society
Munna Khatun
Abstract: In the contemporary digital era, artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping human interactions, decision - making processes, and societal structures. This research aims to explore the ethical dimensions of AI with a focus on human rights, analyzing the potential for both positive advancements and ethical dilemmas. The study is grounded in a social - philosophical framework, examining how AI technologies challenge fundamental human rights such as privacy, equality, and autonomy. Motivated by increasing global concerns about the unchecked growth of AI, the purpose of this study is to understand how these technologies align or conflict with the principles of human rights. Through a qualitative analysis, incorporating case studies and scholarly literature, this research critically evaluates AI?s impact on society, drawing from philosophical discourse, ethical theory, and human rights conventions. The findings highlight the dual nature of AI: it can enhance human welfare but also threatens to deepen inequalities and infringe upon rights. Key conclusions indicate the need for stronger ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks to balance innovation with human dignity. The study?s implications suggest that a collaborative approach involving policymakers, technologists, and ethicists is crucial to ensure that AI developments uphold and promote human rights in a just and equitable manner.
