Abstract

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into urban environments addresses sustainability challenges like resource management, transportation efficiency, and waste reduction. However, critical need for a robust ethical framework to ensure equitable and environmentally responsible implementation. The method proposed emphasizes a combination of community involvement, fairness, and resilience, integrating ethical principles with practical strategies to maximize societal benefits, and incorporates the use of SmartPLS for structural equation modeling to analyze the relationships between ethical principles, sustainability dimensions, and urban outcomes. A significant GAP exists in current frameworks, which often focus solely on individual-level ethics and fail to address the dynamic, systemic challenges posed by fragile social systems and the uneven global structure. The novelty of this approach lies in its comprehensive vision that interlinks human-centered and collectivist-oriented development, bridging socio economic, environmental, and technological dimensions of sustainability. The proposed ethical framework not only mitigates risks but also fosters inclusive and resilient urban ecosystems, aligning digital innovations with the complex interconnections of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 11 (on sustainable cities).

Abstract

In an increasingly digital world, where centralized storage systems dominate and censorship risks are growing, the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) has emerged as a promising decentralized data storage solution. This research aims to evaluate the potential and challenges of implementing IPFS, using a descriptive qualitative approach that includes both a comprehensive literature review and technical simulations. The literature review highlights IPFS’s advantages, particularly in areas such as data integrity, resistance to censorship, and efficient content distribution. However, it also identifies key challenges, such as high latency and the dependency on node availability. To further investigate these issues, technical simulations were conducted using a private IPFS network, testing file access latency under different network conditions. The results indicate that the fastest average latency occurs when all nodes are active, at 150 ms, while the highest latency is observed when files are accessed through a public gateway, with an average of 540 ms. These findings demonstrate that IPFS has substantial potential to create a more open, decentralized digital ecosystem that resists centralized control. However, for large-scale adoption to be feasible, significant improvements in infrastructure, particularly node availability and latency management, are required to fully support IPFS’s widespread implementation.
