Summary: With advancements in AI technologies, the development and implementation of digital food systems are becoming more feasible. AI applications such as machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision have the potential to enhance food safety in various ways. However, obstacles such as limited data sharing and collaborative research efforts hinder the commercial development of AI technologies in food safety. Future actions should focus on data privacy protection, data standardization, and the establishment of a collaborative ecosystem to drive innovations in AI applications for food safety.

Summary: Policy and guideline proposals for ethical AI research have increased in recent years, but lack effective mechanisms for enforcement. This paper uses stochastic evolutionary game dynamics to model the social dilemma of ethical AI development and suggests promoting cooperation in smaller groups with low cooperation cost and high perceived risk of failure, providing insights into the success factors of such proposals.

Summary: This research focuses on the context of mental health and companion AI. Through field evidence and experiments, it reveals the potential safety issues of widespread use of chatbots, the difficulty for companion AI to recognize and appropriately respond to distress signs, and the negative reactions from users to ineffective and risky responses, highlighting reputational risks for generative AI companies.

Summary: The study aimed to identify the causes of moral distress in public health professionals associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and find potential ways to avoid or mitigate the distress. A survey was conducted among members of the UK Faculty of Public Health, and qualitative content analysis was used to explore the situations, moral judgments, and proposed solutions related to moral distress. The results showed that national policy, guidance and law, public health advice, and workplace environments were the main causes of moral distress. Public health professionals recognized the need to improve guidance, communication, and preparedness, and called for more subsidiarity, moral development, support, and freedom to voice concerns.

Summary: The study aims to identify and explore concerns raised by UK research ethics committees (RECs) when reviewing clinical trials funded through the Plutocratic Proposal. Findings suggest that participants generally find this funding method acceptable, but have concerns regarding scientific integrity and fairness in distributing benefits. Additional guidance may be necessary for RECs to address ethical concerns related to donor participation and ensure consistent decision-making.

Summary: To ensure reliable safety of autonomous AI systems in novel situations, general principles guiding them to recognize and avoid harmful behaviors need to be incorporated, supported by a binding system of regulation. Drawing inspiration from law, this article explains how negative human rights could serve as a foundation for an international regulatory system and technical safety constraints for future AI systems.
