While law and ethics work toward a common goal of fostering beneficial and responsible use of AI, these normative initiatives are distinct and must be appropriately situated in relation to each other. In this article, starting from a pragmatist perspective, we propose a reflection on the normative role of what Luciano Floridi calls “soft ethics” in relation to law. We will reflect on the characteristics it should have to play an effective normative role that is complementary to law, as well as on the internormative relations between ethics and law in the perspective of normative pluralism.

It is an unavoidable dimension of what social mediations and modes of reproduction of our information societies will be in the future. While several works in artificial intelligence ethics (AIE) address ethical issues specific to certain areas of expertise, these ethical reflections often remain confined to narrow areas of application, without considering the global ethical issues in which they are embedded. We, therefore, propose to clarify the main approaches to AIE, their philosophical assumptions and the specific characteristics of each one of them, to identify the most promising approach to develop an ethical reflection on the deployment of AI in our societies, which is the one based on information ethics as proposed by Luciano Floridi. We will identify the most important features of that approach to highlight areas that need further investigation.

Many critics have been addressed to Lévinas concerning the difficulty of combining the infinite e... more Many critics have been addressed to Lévinas concerning the difficulty of combining the infinite ethical responsibility, presented as the precondition of experience, and the limitation of the obligation towards the other that rise inevitably within the political. The distinction seems so stark between the transcendent ethical responsibility towards the other and the political logic, associated with the violent and immanent ontological order, that ethics can appear to be jeopardized as soon as it is expressed in a social context. This essay aims to overcome these difficulties by demonstrating that despite their fundamental opposition, the ethical order and the onto-political order are part of a unique structure. In the light of the presence of the third and of the necessity of justice that accompanies it, it is possible to prove the existence of a junction between these distinct but interdependent layers of signification. In fact, the concept of justice is an amphibological concept that at the same time is part of ethics and of politics. It shows that ethics is situated a priori in a social realm. This study will present critical reflection related to law and to human rights law that will demonstrate that Levinas' philosophy not only can, but has to open itself to a social expression.

In most societies, we have refined moral and legal norms for how to treat someone's remains showing respect for the person to whom it belonged. However, such norms are mostly absent when the treatment concerns someone's digital remains. In particular, the approach to privacy issues has not been established. In this chapter, we explore how Information Ethics, as proposed by Luciano Floridi, can offer a meaningful framework to better understand the nature and importance of someone's 'informational body'. We will argue that Information Ethics as patient-oriented, ontocentric and environmental macro-ethics will lead to a radical rethinking of how to contribute to the realisation of human dignity in the digital afterlife. We briefly conclude with some thoughts on what this would mean for business ethics and law-making.

Bien que le droit et l'éthique oeuvrent pour un but commun, soit celui de favoriser une utilisation de l'IA qui soit bénéfique et responsable, ces initiatives normatives sont distinctes et doivent être situées adéquatement l'une par rapport à l'autre. Dans le cadre de cet article, partant d'une perspective pragmatiste, nous proposons une réflexion sur le rôle normatif de ce que Luciano Floridi appelle la soft ethics par rapport au droit. Nous réfléchirons aux caractéristiques qu'elle devrait posséder pour jouer un rôle normatif effectif qui soit complémentaire au droit ainsi qu'aux relations internormatives entre éthique et droit dans la perspective du pluralisme normatif.
