Artificial Intelligence-based technologies in the care model. Risks and benefits from a human rights perspective
Abstract
This article explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be integrated into the care of dependent and disabled people in Spain, highlighting its capacity to promote autonomy and person-centred care. Inspired by the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the document proposes a shift from the institutionalised care model to a more community and homeintegrated one, where technology, especially AI, plays a crucial role. The benefits and risks of AI in care are discussed, such as improving quality of life and service efficiency, while raising the need for careful analysis to avoid discrimination and ensure respect for human rights. In addition, examples of current technologies, such as home care robots and remote monitoring systems, are detailed, showing the increasing integration of AI in the field of care.
