- Title: On the role of ethics and sustainability in business innovation
- Authors: Maria Fay, Frederik F. Flöther,
- Abstract summary: Existing innovation adoption frameworks often focus on technological, organizational, environmental, and social factors impacting adoption.
In this chapter, we explore the ethical and sustainability angles, particularly as they relate to emerging technologies.
We consider how to facilitate the development and cultivation of innovation cultures in organizations, including budding startups as well as established enterprises.

- Abstract: For organizations to survive and flourish in the long term, innovation and novelty must be continually introduced, which is particularly true in today's rapidly changing world. This raises a variety of ethical and sustainability considerations that seldom receive the attention they deserve. Existing innovation adoption frameworks often focus on technological, organizational, environmental, and social factors impacting adoption. In this chapter, we explore the ethical and sustainability angles, particularly as they relate to emerging technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) being a prominent example. We consider how to facilitate the development and cultivation of innovation cultures in organizations, including budding startups as well as established enterprises, through approaches such as systems thinking.

In recent years, there has been an increased emphasis on understanding and mitigating adverse impacts of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on society.
A significant challenge in the design of ethical AI systems is that there are multiple stakeholders in the AI pipeline, each with their own set of constraints and interests.
This position paper outlines some potential ways in which generative artworks can play this role by serving as accessible and powerful educational tools.
