Toward Emotionally Intelligent AI Systems: Foundations, Challenges, and the Road Ahead
Heidrich Vicci
Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly used in settings in which their outputs alter decisions, communication, and access to services. In such settings, technical accuracy does not exhaust the conditions of a satisfactory interaction, because a user's emotional state may affect both interpretation and outcome. This paper examines the theoretical foundations of Emotional Intelligence (EI), the emergenc…

Adam Smith on Prudence before Benevolence
Michael Emmett Brady
It is generally not possible for benevolence to precede prudence because it is prudence that allows one to create a surplus that can be used later for benevolence. One can’t give what one does not have. Sympathy, without the application of prudence first, is generally ineffective sentiment. Only prudence allows one to follow up sympathy with actions. One can imagine a poor Good Samaritan with no horse, no wine, no o…

Adam Smith was Consistent in Both The Theory of Moral Sentiments and The Wealth of Nations on the Role of the Concept of Prudence (Self Interest): Das Utilitarian Economist view is the Problem
Michael Emmett Brady
Adam Smith was very consistent in both the Wealth of Nations and in The Theory of Moral Sentiments concerning the role of the virtue of prudence(self-interest) in both books. Like all advocates of virtue ethics, the first virtue that must be mastered had to be the Virtue of Prudence, which required the satisfaction of the necessary condition of being able to take care of oneself and family first, before any other vi…

The Origin of Morality and the Making of the Moral Predicament
Gennady Shkliarevsky
Moral dimension is a characteristic feature of most transformative developments that have occurred in the course of human history. Moral outrage has fuelled numerous upheavals, uprisings, and revolutions. Researchers have recognized the important role of moral outrage during periods of social and political change. However, they usually tend to explain it by social, political, or economic factors. They rarely trace t…

From Decentralization to Ethical Resilience: A Critical Reappraisal and Extension of Hayek’s Theory of Knowledge in Society
Frans Lavdari
Friedrich Hayek’s The Use of Knowledge in Society presents a seminal argument for the virtues of decentralized knowledge and the price mechanism, positing that markets, by leveraging dispersed, context-specific knowledge, can achieve efficient resource coordination without central oversight. Hayek’s work has deeply influenced economic thought, particularly in its defence of spontaneous order and its critique of cent…

Incentives for Accuracy in Analyst Research
Patricia Crifo, Hind Sami
This paper develops a model to explore the dynamic interaction between incentive contracts and financial analysts' efforts in producing high-quality research, while accounting for both ethical and reputational concerns. Our findings indicate that compensation structures shaped by reputational and ethical considerations can give rise to incentive-related challenges. Specifically, an exclusive reliance on financial in…

The Origins of a Rebellion: Religion, Land, and a Western Environmental Ethic
Jerrold Long
This article examines an apparent irony in the environmental ethic of the contemporary American West. Much of the Interior West is dominated by a particular culture that is the product of Mormon settlement in the Salt Lake Valley and subsequent expansion throughout the region. The teachings of early Mormon leaders contained significant threads of what today would be recognized as environmentalism. Despite these teac…

The Machiavellian Challenge to Business Ethics
George Bragues
No political philosopher is better known in the business world than Niccolo Machiavelli. His fame resting on The Prince, the Renaissance Italian writer has often been featured in the popular business press, mostly to show the relevance of his realpolitik world-view to the sorts of issues that a contemporary manager is apt to face. However, the popular view of Machiavelli as a hard-headed thinker has been challenged …
