“…The democratization of data [70] can also contribute to preventing AI from imposing its code of conduct under the guise of digital freedom [71]. The experience of other countries shows that it is not easy to determine who regulates this issue [72]. However, it is clear that there is an urgency to legislate, both by supporting existing initiatives proposed since 1999 [73] and through various proposals: the technocratic oath [74], an AI oversight agency detailing its permissible uses [75], and governmental decision-making processes [76].…”

Given the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and the conditions of vulnerability of large sectors of the population, the question emerges: what are the ethical limits of technologies in patient care? This paper examines this question in the light of the “language of nature” and of Aristotelian causal analysis, in particular the concept of means and ends. Thus, it is possible to point out the root of the distinction between the identity of the person and the entity of any technology. Nature indicates that the person is always an end in itself. Technology, on the contrary, should only be a means to serve the person. The diversity of their respective natures also explains why their respective agencies enjoy diverse scopes. Technological operations (artificial agency, artificial intelligence) find their meaning in the results obtained through them (poiesis). Moreover, the person is capable of actions whose purpose is precisely the action itself (praxis), in which personal agency and, ultimately, the person themselves, is irreplaceable. Forgetting the distinction between what, by nature, is an end and what can only be a means is equivalent to losing sight of the instrumental nature of AI and, therefore, its specific meaning: the greatest good of the patient. It is concluded that the language of nature serves as a filter that supports the effective subordination of the use of AI to its specific purpose, the human good. The greatest contribution of this work is to draw attention to the nature of the person and technology, and about their respective agencies. In other words: listening to the language of nature, and attending to the diverse nature of the person and technology, personal agency, and artificial agency.

In his  book, which partially shares its title with this edited collection (The Automated State: Computer Systems as a New Force in Society),  Robert McBride anticipated that public authorities would be able to do 'more' thanks to the possibility of storing more detailed data combined with the increasing capacity of machines to process that data. He conjectured that this would create new legal problems. Fast forward half a century and the Automated State may (really) be on the brink of happening. AI can essentially change the state and the way it operatesnote the 'essentially'.Public authorities, employing (or assisted by) machines to a large scale, could do more. What this 'more' is, is a matter of discussion,  but, broadly speaking, it can mean two ideas: (i) doing things that humans could do, but more efficiently or to a larger scale; or (ii) doing things that could not be done before, at all or at a reasonable cost.  Therefore, the rules that regulate the action of public authorities need to be adapted. This chapter deals with the normative question of the type of regulatory reform that we should aim for.It can be anticipated that changes within the immediate horizonthree to five yearswill be marginal and starting at the points of least resistance, that is, in tasks
