The In Fieri team, in collaboration with OBVIA, developed a policy brief on AI and digital solutions. Using examples, it describes the four responsible innovation principles and clarifies pre-existing socioeconomic dynamics that condition the current development of these solutions as well as future trajectories. We offer guidance for public decision-makers and developers to help them shift towards a more responsible development of these innovations.
