Abstract
This paper examines the ethical implications of hybrid intelligence systems within increasingly connected digital societies. As Internet of Things (IoT) devices proliferate and AI systems become more sophisticated, complex human-AI collaborative decision-making environments emerge.The research investigates the ethical frameworks that govern these hybrid intelligence systems, mainly focusing on autonomy, accountability, and integrity in big data-driven societies.Research Questions: How do hybrid intelligence systems challenge traditional notions of moral agency and responsibility in digital societies? What ethical frameworks are most appropriate for governing human-AI collaborative decision-making in IoT-enabled environments? How can we ensure equitable access and fair representation in hybrid intelligence systems while protecting individual privacy and autonomy? This research builds upon three primary theoretical foundations: Distributed moral responsibility in socio-technical systems, Human-in-the-loop artificial intelligence ethics, and Integrity in algorithmic decision-making.The paper synthesizes these perspectives to develop a novel framework for understanding the ethical implications of hybrid intelligence in digital societies.The research employs a Qualitative analysis of existing hybrid intelligence implementations in smart cities and case studies of ethical challenges in IoT-enabled decision-making systems. This research aims to develop a comprehensive ethical framework for hybrid intelligence governance, identify key challenges and opportunities in implementing ethical guidelines for human-AI collaboration, propose practical recommendations for policymakers and system designers, and advance theoretical understanding of moral agency in hybrid intelligence contexts.The research addresses the conference’s focus on AI, ethics, and order in global society by examining the intersection of human and artificial intelligence in digital environments, shaping social order and ethical frameworks in contemporary society.
