\nThe objective of the World Inequality Report 2018 is to contribute to a more informed global democratic debate on economic inequality by bringing the latest and most complete data to the public discussion. Economic inequality is widespread and to some extent inevitable; the World Inequality Report provides an avenue to properly monitor and address rising inequality to help prevent it from leading to various sorts of political, economic, and social catastrophes.<\/p>\n
\nIn May 2018, the New Zealand Government announced the world\u2019s first measures of success combining the nation’s wellbeing alongside financial measures. The Health and Independence Report 2017 was published by the New Zealand Ministry of Health to provide a clear baseline for the state of the nation’s health from which progress will be assessed. The report references Te Whare Tapa Wh\u0101, a M\u0101ori philosophy towards health based on a holistic model of health and wellbeing, acknowledging the role of social determinants and environmental factors in sustaining both good and poor health.<\/p>\n

\nFor autonomous and intelligent systems (A\/IS) to demonstrably advance the well-being of humanity, there needs to be concise and useful indicators to measure those advancements. The IEEE P7010TM Standard Working Group, Well-being Metrics Standard for Ethical Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems, was created with the belief that A\/IS should prioritize human well-being as an outcome in all system designs, using the best available and widely accepted well-being metrics as their reference point.<\/p>\n
