Online digital services have changed the way that people interact. Companies provide apps for download allowing users of any age to experience them through smartphones and tablets among other devices. To date, company policies have acted as pseudo-guidelines for recommended use. But what happens when apps that were never designed for children are acquired and used by them? To mitigate potential risks the IEEE 2089–2021 standard was developed- an age appropriate digital services framework for children. The standard stipulates the need for a risk-based age appropriate register by which developers can do away with potential intolerable harms on children during the design phase, and keep track of unintended hazards, in order to counteract ongoing negative impacts on children, allowing them to thrive and flourish. Supplementing international law, state regulations, and company policies related to acceptable use, IEEE 2089–2021 provides a benchmark for how children’s apps should be designed based on the 5Rights Principles. Technical standards can be considered a type of soft law, supplementing hard law like treaties or acts, and even non-legally binding instruments like declarations and policies. Together this panoply of safeguards can mitigate the potential for flaws in product development, ranging from data privacy breaches, location tracking default features, nudging toward in-gaming purchases and autoscrolling, child labor toward data annotation, and adverse metaverse experiences. But given the rapidity of product development cycles, it is technical standards that can have the most immediate effect on the pacing problem ensuring that child rights impact assessments (CRIA) are implemented in practice.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has witnessed remarkable advancements in recent years and has significantly impacted various domains, including cultural heritage. Indeed, AI technologies offer unprecedented capacities to analyze huge amounts of historical data, enabling researchers and art historians to uncover precious patterns, connections, and insights that might otherwise remain elusive. Also, the efficiency and accuracy of AI techniques play a pivotal role in many cultural heritage-related tasks, such as cataloging and organizing extensive cultural collections, streamlining the management of heritage resources for present and future generations. However, the integration of AI in cultural heritage also brings forth intricate ethical questions. These span over the issues of authenticity, subjectivity, and interpretation biases of an AI-empowered, reproduced, and/or generated artwork up to the legal concerns related to authorship. However, such issues are mostly undefined and unaddressed in the scholarship at the intersection on AI, ethics, and cultural heritage. This paper aims to pave the way to fill such a gap of context-sensitive ethical issues for AI in cultural heritage. To this aim, the paper first analyzes the main opportunities and benefits raised by AI in cultural heritage. Then, matching benchmark, agreed-upon AI ethics principles elaborated in the AI ethics scholarship in the last decade and relevant to cultural heritage, it highlights specific ethical risks that ought to be considered for the development and deployment of trustworthy AI in and for cultural heritage. Finally, areas requiring further attention and work, and actors call to intervene, are identified to facilitate next steps for ethics and governance of AI in cultural heritage.
