Artificial Intelligence and Neurorights: Lessons Learned for a Future Global Regulation

This paper starts from the idea that there is a relationship between neurorights and artificial intelligence wider than explored until now, like the two sides of the same coin, with pros and cons. It is assumed at theoretical level the need for a global regulation of the complex ways such relationship expresses, even though the principal international actors seem reluctant to do it. The exam of previous efforts to manage with controversial bio juridical issues in past (by way of an international treaty and nonbinding codes of conduct, or thanks to judicial activism by international tribunals of human rights), might not to be useful for a proper normative choice, if it is not recognized that the best response by the world community to this matter must face three challenges: how to produce it upon a democratic basis, according to informing principles on a collective consensual basis, and it being ready to be socially accepted without the help of coercion.
