When a list of pros and cons won’t cut it, a new decision-making tool developed by Cornell researchers can use artificial intelligence to help make difficult decisions. But there’s a twist: Instead of checking AI’s result, AI is checking you.When a list of pros and cons won’t cut it, a new decision-making tool developed by Cornell researchers can use artificial intelligence to help make difficult decisions.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a key factor in the advancement of many fields, but it is also a new frontier in the development of neurotechnologies. Beyond its growing popularity in fields such as automation, content generation or data analysis, its use in the study of the human brain and related interventions raises significant moral and ethical questions about the potential of AI tools and their relationship with fundamental rights and freedoms.Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a key factor in the advancement of many fields, but it is also a new frontier in the development of neurotechnologies.

If you’ve ever turned to artificial intelligence to try to figure out how to handle a tricky situation with a friend or colleague, you’re far from alone. For many, AI has become a modern oracle—a source of guidance, emotional support, or clarity in moments of uncertainty—though critics worry that they could lead to emotional dependence on the technology.If you’ve ever turned to artificial intelligence to try to figure out how to handle a tricky situation with a friend or colleague, you’re far from alone.
