Summary
The longstanding collaboration between neuroscience and artificial intelligence has driven advancements in both fields. While neuroethics and AI ethics traditionally operate separately, the rise of AI-assisted neurotechnologies highlights the need for integration. AI is increasingly applied in neuroscience research, neurological healthcare, and AI design inspired by brain science, prompting scholars to advocate for a more unified ethical framework. This article explores how aligning neuroethics and AI ethics can enhance theoretical understanding and governance. We outline key reasons for this collaboration and examine areas where cross-disciplinary insights could improve ethical oversight. Given the rapid convergence of neuroscience and AI, fragmented ethical approaches risk falling short in addressing emerging challenges.
