AI is transforming health and social care by improving diagnosis, predicting risks, and personalising treatment. It supports caregivers with decision-making, automates routine tasks, and enhances coordination across services. Yet AI tools and their use also raise many ethical issues, some of which directly relate to values like privacy and non-discrimination and others to wider social and political considerations. In this project we focus on various pressing challenges, like the responsible use of AI in long-term caregiving, addressing power dynamics in healthcare systems and considering the impact of AI in mental health.
