English (UK) AI systems often only form a technical component that is embedded in a social process. Together, they make up a more comprehensive socio-technical system, and the impacts of a given AI system always depend on this larger context in which they are implemented. The technical specification of an AI system does not predetermine the impact that it will have and the risks that it entails when it is implemented. A given technological solution, such as a lipreading device, may well be harmless or even vastly beneficial in one setting, for example, for deaf persons, but cause profound ethical and regulatory problems as part of a public video surveillance system - meaning that when an AI application is transposed from one setting to a different setting it may have radically different social consequences.
Rhpositive.net is the personal blog of Roland Hochstrasser. The contents presented on these pages are the result of work carried out in various fields, with a particular interest in cultural policies, territory, tourism, and communication strategies. The purpose is certainly not to provide definitive answers, on the contrary: the texts propose reflections that aim to stimulate questions for further developments. Hence the name and slogan, which emphasize the importance of having constructive and positive perspectives.

Osare: il progresso si ottiene solo così.
Oser: le progrès est à ce prix.
To dare; that is the price of progress.
