Neural Implants & Brain–Computer Interfaces: Enhancing Human Intelligence or Violating Free Will?
Abstract: The integration of neural implants with artificial intelligence creates opportunities to develop new implants and enhance current nanotechnologies. Although these advances hold significant potential for restoring neurological functions, they also introduce important ethical concerns. The rapid advancements in neural implants and brain–computer interfaces [BCIs] are revolutionizing human cognition, enabling enhanced intelligence, communication, and even thought-driven control of external devices. Although these technologies offer great promise in enhancing human abilities, they …

Weeding as a Sustainable Practice: Ethical Implications for Library Collection Management
Abstract: Libraries continually refine their collections to ensure they remain relevant, reliable, and representative of their users' needs. However, the process of weeding raises pressing ethical and environmental concerns. This study reframes weeding as a practice of ethical stewardship and sustainable collection management rather than a routine technical procedure. It introduces the Ethical-Sustainability Weeding Framework (ESWF), a conceptual model integrating ethical responsibility, Institutional transparency, and ecological accountability. The ESWF encompasses five …

Technology with a Human Face: Reimagining Progress through Universal Ethical Principles
Abstract: Technological progression is mostly considered as a tool of human evolution. In this digital era, however, quick novelty has revealed complex ethical gaps in the modelling and implement of technology. Technologies namely artificial intelligence, algorithmic systems, and digital surveillance progressively effect social life, economic activity, and political decision-making. While these technologies provide proficiency and progress, they also advance moral concerns connected to discretion, disparity, liability, and human dignity. The technique …

Polymers In Low-Resource Biomedical Innovation: Maker Labs, DIY Devices and Ethics
Abstract: The low-cost biomedical devices have been prototyped and sometimes put into practice by maker laboratories and community "DIY" (Do-It-Yourself maker) innovators due to the fast-growing availability of polymer-based fabrication (desktop 3D printing, laser cutting, and simple molding). Nowadays, polymers such as PLA, PETG, TPU, and PEEK are used in a wide range of applications, including surgical guides and anatomical models, as well as assistive technology and diagnostic housings. Such innovations …
