The development and application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been progressing across a variety of domains. The rapid progress of AI has brought about benefits of technological development and expansion of application areas. On the other hand, it has also brought challenges, such as the lack of legal development and the emergence of ethical issues. Due to its impact on society, there is a growing interest in the ethical aspects of AI. In this study, we will focus on the ethical issues of concern when using AI in a business context. First, we will organize previous research on AI and ethics and identify what is at the center of the debate; second, through previous research, examine the ethical issues and challenges that arise when AI is used in business; and third, discuss the potential for future research.

There is much research about corporate social responsibility (CSR) in the past decade. But its research didn't show the changes of CSR from a perspective of CSR reports. In this article, I examined how the concept of CSR has changed in a time span of a decade. This survey is done using text analysis of CEO letters appearing in the CSR reports of 15 major corporations in Japan during a period of transformational change. The results show that the discourse about CSR in the CSR reports has changed from an abstract definition of CSR toward a concrete definition of CSR. This article contributes theoretically to show that conceptual changes of Japanese corporations social responsibility in CEO letters appearing in the CSR reports in the investigation period.
