Abstract
Current times in which supply chains are increasingly viewed as being uncouth in the practice of their operations call for the integration of AI to thereby solve ethical dilemmas within such chains. This paper delves into the role played by AI to navigate ethical dilemmas in supply chains, thereby discussing its ability to resolve challenges such as labor rights, environmental sustainability, and responsible sourcing. Through this literature review, the current research is able to draw on existing work on AI applications within the supply chain and highlight gaps concerning ethical implications. The paper illustrates the real benefits and challenges surrounding the application of these technologies through case studies of those organizations which successfully implement AI-driven tools for ethical decision-making. The framework proposed should, therefore, bring about actionable recommendations to the business on attaining such a balance between operational efficiency and ethical responsibility. Lessons contained in the overall suggest the necessary use of AI to construct a more transparent and accountable supply chain landscape but lead to a more sustainable and ethically sound business landscape
