The aging population, combined with the scarcity of healthcare resources, presents significant challenges for our society. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics offers a potential solution to these challenges. However, such technologies also raise ethical and cybersecurity concerns related to the preservation of privacy, autonomy, and human contact. In this case study, we examine these ethical challenges and the opportunities brought by AI and robotics in the care of old individuals at home. This article aims to describe the current fragmented state of legislation related to the development and use of AI-based services and robotics and to reflect on their ethics and cybersecurity. The findings indicate that, guided by ethical principles, we can leverage the best aspects of technology while ensuring that old people can maintain a dignified and valued life at home. The careful handling of ethical issues should be viewed as a competitive advantage and opportunity, rather than a burden.
