ABOUT
Neurotechnology has been developing at an extraordinarily fast pace, offering countless benefits to humanity.
This speed and quantity of benefits brought by neurotechnology is enhanced when it is associated with artificial intelligence, which has raised ethical-legal questions about its impacts, considering the possibility of putting at risk the rights to physical and mental integrity, privacy, and identity, with repercussions that may even involve discriminatory treatment and even alter human nature itself. This is a situation that requires an urgent response from the law. Some international organizations, such as the OECD, UNESCO and the Organization of American States, have approved some documents, but without binding effects. At the state level, Chile was the first country to amend its constitution to protect so-called neurorights.
