Abstract

This paper argues that ethical governance of brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) should be precise and refined for different functional types, namely write-in and read-out BCIs. It details the functions and technical approaches of both types, highlighting their distinct ethical implications regarding safety, privacy, identity, autonomy, responsibility, fairness, and informed consent. The authors propose a precise governance approach, offering tailored recommendations and countermeasures for the technical and ethical challenges specific to each BCI type.
