Comprehensive Report: Global Citizenship, Business, AI, and Laws

This report provides an overview of four key areas: global citizenship, the purpose of business, the influence of artificial intelligence, and laws concerning abortion, the death penalty, and assisted dying. The report defines global citizenship and its importance, highlighting the need for respect, understanding, and social responsibility. It then explores the purpose of business, emphasizing profit generation, ethical conduct, and corporate social responsibility. The report also discusses the potential impact of artificial intelligence on business, including increased efficiency, cost reduction, and customer satisfaction. Finally, it summarizes the laws related to abortion, death penalties, and assisted dying in different countries, acknowledging the cultural and legal variations. The report uses various references to support the concepts and provide a comprehensive analysis of each topic.

INTRODUCTION
This report is going to focus on four different topics that will aid in understand the
concepts of different elements and perspectives (Miller78, 2016). First scenario is going to be
enclosed with Global citizenship, second section will focus on purpose of business, third subject
is influence of artificial intelligence and last, task will focus on laws related to abortion.
The Idea of Global Citizenship
Global citizenship can be defined as a citizenship which mainly nurtures respect foe both
personal and others with an aspect of living. According to Cohen, (2015) global citizenship
mainly develops thinking in individuals so that they can think deeply or critically as well for
bringing in the equality. This is dome for a social cause i.e. minimisation of harm that is going to
earth. On the other hand, global citizenship themes also plays crucial role for learners where they
may easily get confident for standing on the belief that they have got (Favell, 2016). On the other
hand, more skills are also needed for the same so that the ethics and it have also impacted on
their decisions as well.
On the basis of my own assessment in present context, I think that idea of global
citizenship may help In bringing up the humanity among both young and adult in all over the
world. This could lead entire globe to be aware of senses of their own role as a world citizen
(McIntosh, Waddock and Kell, 2017). From my perspective, if an individual is a global citizen,
he/she consists with many things like respects and values diversity; they also carry understanding
of how the world works. Apart from this, they outraged by social injustice and participate in the
community at a range of levels, from the local to the global they are willing to act to make the
world a more equitable and sustainable place and also takes responsibility for their actions
(Dower and Williams, 2016).
Summarize the laws relating to abortion, the death penalties and assisted dying?
In present world, it is being analysed that most of the countries carry their own culture
which stays mostly different from other ones (Vaughn, 2015). The same impacts upon rules and
regulations as well related to abortion, death penalties and euthanasia. Let’s take an example of
United Kingdom and India, where The Abortion Act, 1967 is followed by UK and Medical
Termination of pregnancy Act, 1971 is followed by India (Savulescu and Schuklenk, 2017). This
is because of perception of people and change in state of mind of parliament because both
1

countries are too different from each other. On the other hand, if it is talked about death penalties
The Murder (Abolition of Death Penalty) Act, 1965 is followed by United Kingdom and in India,
the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013 is being followed as penalty for death related action
taken by a criminal (Myers, 2015).
Away with this, if it is talked about Euthanasia, it is a wide subject to study because both
of the nations support Euthanasia, till some extent. Therefore, these changes among laws with
different perspectives create differences among laws of different countries.
What is the purpose of business?
Business is an entity that offers values to society or consumers in form of goods and
services (Daniels and et.al., 2015). Every organisation has some purpose for existence. The main
purpose of business is to generate high profits by providing their products and services to target
or potential customers. Business also ensures and maintains responsibility towards society and
stakeholders. Purpose of an entity is to satisfy the interest of employees, customers, stakeholders
and whole society. Only making money cannot achieve the purpose, so for this company needs
to fulfil needs and demand of related parties. Companies focus on creating large customer base
and for this they provide innovative services and products (Sekaran and Bougie, 2016). As it
helps them in achieving competitive advantage and being ahead in competitive environment.
Corporate social responsibility of an organisation assists in performing all business
activities in an ethical manner, which is necessary for sharing and achieving their purpose. As it
is related to the rights and consideration of community, environment, human and society in
which they run their organisational activities (Bryman and Bell, 2015). Social responsibilities of
business demonstrates their activities in society and interested parties. This helps in attaining the
major purpose of high profitability as now a day’s customers are aware about responsibilities that
business have for society. Thus, they prefer those products and services which are offered by
ethically run businesses. So it increases the profits and value of organisation by attracting
potential consumers. CSR enhances public image, raise awareness and recognition of brand,
increase customer and employee engagement (Allen, 2017).
How could Artificial intelligence influence the future
Artificial intelligence is a part of computer science that influence on creation of machines
and technologies which can perform activities like a human being. It is also called as machine
intelligence (Ghahramani, 2015). These machines are experts in visual perception, decision
2

making, speech recognition and in translation of different languages. Artificial intelligence will
influence the future growth of business as it provides ease in completion of task and duties as
machines will automatically operate complex processes. This technology creates patterns to build
values for understanding their customers in a better way. It increases the satisfaction level if
consumers by reducing the cost of products and services (Goodfellow and et. al., 2016).
Companies are becoming more customer centric and it provides insight information about
consumers to them. Artificial intelligence improves effectiveness and efficiency, increase
revenues, decreases operation and other related costs, provides better customer experience
(Copeland and Reynoldson, 2017). This will increase the level of quality and standard of
products and services by giving intelligent advices. AI also reduces human errors in processes
and predict preferences of customers to give them customized or personalized experiences. It
considers changes in business operations and welcome new opportunities in industry. It has some
disadvantages like this will lead to job losses because low skilled employees and labours will get
replaced by machines. As robots has replaced the assembly line labours. AI never consider
judgemental calls while taking crucial decisions (Nilsson, 2014).
