We live in an era where evidence-based policy and practice rely on scientific reasoning to gather valuable information, integrated with an understanding of consumer/patient values and social needs. Research is crucial for generating insights that could improve health and welfare. The exponential growth in knowledge has led to a demand for knowledge-based systems using innovative technology like artificial intelligence. How these advancements are used will determine if they prove to be beneficial or detrimental to the population’s quality of life. Ethics are crucial to ensuring that the benefits of new knowledge and technology contribute to social well-being.
