Title: Rethinking the Triple Normative Theory as an Ethics of Health IA
Abstract: According to some specialists (Floridi, 2023), a unified normative framework of Artificial Intelligence (AI) needs, especially in the healthcare domain, to be composed of five principles: the classic bioethical prima facie norms of beneficence; nonmaleficence; autonomy and justice plus a new one, namely explicability. One problem of such approach is the metaethical intuitionist assumption, which may lead to tensions and even dilemmas in their application. Moreover, the question why the four principles are not sufficient arises as well as whether explicability or any other principles are really necessary. In this paper, I will rethink Parfit’s Triple Normative Theory (2011) to avoid these difficulties testing it as a potential candidate for an Ethics of Health IA arguing that it provides the foundation for a first ethical principle.
