Biological Integrity Under AI Mediation

Definition

Biological Integrity Under AI Mediation examines preservation of bodily safety and function when AI shapes action, exposure or care within the broader domain of the preservation of biological safety, homeostasis, identity and agency during sustained AI-mediated interaction.

Why this matters

Failures concerning preservation of bodily safety and function when AI shapes action, exposure or care can cause physical or psychological harm, loss of function, privacy invasion, identity compromise, exclusion, coercion or irreversible impact on human agency.

Research questions

Under which conditions can preservation of bodily safety and function when AI shapes action, exposure or care be delivered, measured or protected reliably, and how do outcomes vary by person, device, duration, context and governance controls?

Hypotheses

A transparent, safety-bounded and person-centred approach to biological integrity under ai mediation, combining validated measurement, informed consent, privacy and security controls, human oversight and longitudinal monitoring, will improve benefit–risk outcomes compared with opaque or technology-centred approaches.

Proposed methods

physiological monitoring; controlled exposure studies; ecological momentary assessment; longitudinal cohort follow-up; stress and workload testing; embodiment studies; systems safety analysis; expert and affected-user review; reproducibility testing; methods adapted specifically to Biological Integrity Under AI Mediation
