MONLEZUN, Dominique J et al. The global AI ethics of COVID-19 recovery: Narrative review and Personalist Social Contract ethical analysis of AI-driven optimization of public health effectiveness and social equities. Med. ética [online]. 2022, vol.33, n.2, pp.357-394.  Epub 31-Jul-2023. ISSN 2594-2166.  https://doi.org/10.36105/mye.2022v33n2.02.

COVID-19 continues to exact not only a devastating cost both clinically and financially on the global human community, but it also illuminates the structural social inequities and technical ineffectiveness in governments and health systems globally still struggling to respond and recover from this historic crisis. This manuscript seeks to provide the first narrative review-informed ethical analysis of artificial intelligence (AI) countermeasures with the realistic potential to accelerate and force-multiply the countermeasures for improved pre-, intra-, and post-pandemic management optimizing public health outcomes without sacrificing social equity. By beginning with the human person in the metaphysically and anthropologically grounded ethical system of the Personalist Social Contract in a style that is concise and accessible, this manuscript therefore seeks for a broad audience to unit science and ethics, developed and developing nations, market and non-market based economies, and religiously affiliated and non-affiliated belief systems in the shared vision of a healthier and fairer future for every patient and population.
