This book is aimed at researchers, entrepreneurs, and innovation consultants of the 5.0 era. For many centuries, the dominant paradigm of innovation was based on competition and the protection of the achievements (closed innovation).In the early years of the new millennium, the advent of globalization and the network has made the model evolve towards open and collaborative approaches (open innovation).Both methods corresponded to a different view of the world and society.Today, in a historical phase in which the world needs to become more sustainable and equitable, from the heart of the Mediterranean, the cradle of classical civilization, a group of valuable academics, scholars, and entrepreneurs propose to the world a new and further evolution of the concept of innovation and expression of the era we are living in: the harmonic innovation, an attempt to combine science and wisdom, technique and spirit, scientific research and moral research, technological progressand new humanism, new economy and social impacts, power, and limit.Anybody who aims to discover a fragment of future is welcome to read this book.

This consideration explains the growing role of artificial intelligence in our lives and the need to understand its mechanisms.This book presents original research articles addressing various aspects of artificial intelligence applied to economics, law, management, and optimization.

The book aims to deal with the main advances in the study of artificial intelligence, the digital and circular economy, and innovation from a multidisciplinary perspective. Whoever governs the artificial intelligence will hold the keys to the world and the future.

It is a book made up of questions, some without certain answers, that attempts to open the reader's mind to new and, perhaps, futuristic scenarios. There are two diametrically opposed approaches to artificial intelligence today. On the one hand, there are the techno-pessimists who see only dystopian scenarios and experience technological progress with apprehension, emphasising the dangers, and on the other hand, there are the techno-optimists who, on the other hand, tend to overestimate the positive effects, going so far as to attribute almost thaumaturgic virtues to technological progress. Our approach is meant to be secular and scientific; the risks must not be concealed, nor must they be overestimated, just as the positive aspects must not be emphasised. And, in any case, as in any social phenomenon, the governance of processes and the definition of a system of rules and policies are the aspects that can create advantages or disadvantages and, above all, can determine who are the beneficiaries of the advantages and who have to bear the disadvantages. Like any new technology, this too can be dehumanising, but technology is a tool that depends on how it is used and by whom it is used. that of ethics is, therefore, a fundamental aspect. Therefore, one should neither be a techno-optimist nor a techno-pessimist, but should be aware that governing the economic and social structural changes that the advent of artificial intelligence will cause will be crucial to ensure prosperity for future generations and to avoid negative and even apocalyptic scenarios. So no futurist dystopias! Humanity has so far always been able to govern technological progress, it certainly has the potential to govern what some have called 'the Final Invention', but it will only succeed if it is able to understand the peculiarities of this new process of technological development and give it ethical content.The book provides a thoughtful review of the relationship between artificial intelligenceand ethics, approaching the issue from different perspectives: philosophical, technological, economic and legal. This will be one of the most important issues that Humanity will have to face and resolve.

In this digital era, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a catalyst for transformation across numerous fields, ranging from, economics, environment, finance to healthcare, AI's integration into daily operations and strategic planning presents a pivotal shift towards data-driven decision-making and automation.

In this digital era, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as a catalyst for transformation across numerous fields, ranging from, economics, environment, finance to healthcare, AI's integration into daily operations and strategic planning presents a pivotal shift towards data-driven decision-making and automation. Each chapter in this volume addresses a unique aspect of AI, from theoretical frameworks and technological advancements to practical applications and ethical considerations. This volume not only highlights the advancements and applications of AI but also addresses the critical challenges of bias, privacy, and ethical implications associated with AI deployment. Through a multidisciplinary approach, it aims to provide readers with a nuanced understanding of AI's role in modern society and its potential to address some of the most pressing challenges of our times. As we stand on the brink of technological revolutions, this volume serves as a guide and a critical examination of the potential pathways AI might forge in the future. It is an essential read for academics, industry professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in the profound changes AI is poised to bring. This is a multi-author book, but not a collection of essays. In fact, although signed by different authors, all the chapters of the book follow a line of development which is traced in the first part of the book and deepen the various aspects in logical order.The various parts of the book will explore the most important features of AI and analyse the implications of AI in Economics, Law, Policies, Smart Citizens and Territorial Aspects.
